New series

carved on salvaged chairbacks

In 2021 I started a new series of carvings, deploying invented ad copy and graphics in a genre satire critique of the marketing industry at this moment of our social and environmental dystopian crossroads. These new woodcuts are carved on curved oak seatbacks salvaged from the renovation of the Martha Cohen Theatre. Knowing this is my preferred medium, Arts Commons provided me with a truckload of carpentry grade 12 ply oak. In September 2021, I exhibited the initial pieces from this series titled "POP APOCALYPSE" alongside Allison Morgan and Phillip Bandura at Ruberto Ostberg gallery. The Canada Council for the Arts provided vital support in 2022, enabling me to further develop this series, culminating in my solo exhibition, "Topical Ointment" at Ruberto Ostberg. Currently, I am working towards a two-person show with Chris Cran, titled "Miss Pulchritude and Mister Muscles," scheduled for September 2023.
