The Department of Art and Art History at the University of Saskatchewan is pleased to announce this series of talks from our MFA candidates Class of 2021. These online presentations will allow guests access to the projects and processes of artists working through circumstances unprecedented in their lifetimes with rigour and resilience. Their practices are as varied as the individuals producing them, not joined thematically but connected through space and time. Please join us.
About the artist
My intuition is the catalyst for the myriad of ephemera I collect and organize, trusting that a deeper camaraderie will emerge over time. I am energized by natural materials spotted in urban green spaces by virtue of chance encounters. Freely exploring ways to disrupt the traditional forms, systems, rules, and surface barriers of unheeded everyday objects permits me to cultivate new meaning. Merging these materials as I reimagine collections methodologies, documentation, and taxonomies in an endeavour to create my own systems of organization is at the heart of my current curiosity.
