I'm going to be apart of an awesome zine fair at the end of the month called Zine Dream. If you're in the Toronto area on August 29th, come visit me and a group of over 50 talented Toronto artists at the Tranzac! Below are a few pieces I've been working on for a zine I'm putting together for the fair. I'm excited to see how it all comes together and can't wait to see what kind of beautiful treasures I'm sure to find at Zine Dream!
This is a photo of an installation I did for the release party of the second edition of the Fat City Wildcat publication. I projected a drawing onto a long curtain and created an installation based around the drawing. Its hard to see what exactly is going on, however its suppose to resemble a sort of seance setting. I really enjoyed the idea of projecting my drawing and creating an environment based around the image. It allowed me to delve into a story line, exploring topics and aesthetics I would have other wised bypassed. I hope I have another opportunity to play around with this medium and explore its many possibilities.

These are the images I submitted into the second issue of Fat City Wildcat. I can't wait to see how this issue turns out and nor should you! Come out to our launch party next Friday May 28th to check out some art and listen to some music...there might even be snacks! You won't be disappointed, I promise!
Here's another piece I did for school. It was based on a pod cast about the idea of time and how it is not fixed but rather malleable according to whose experiencing it. Throughout the pod cast they discuss various scenarios where the traditional sense of time is questioned. At one point, a series of track and field athletes discuss the sensations they feel while running in relation to time. They explain a sense of stillness and how a race can be an "out of body" experience. I ran track and field competitively throughout high school so I jumped at the idea of illustrating an old love of mine.
