SUMMARY:Prototype: Meditations in Space by Rachel Chaisson
DESCRIPTION:PROTOTYPE/MEDITATIONS ON SPACE is a playful opportunity for a congregation of friends and strangers to envision\, reflect on\, imagine\, expand\, and hold their ideas of ‘space’ while interacting with typewriter space-making machines. Situated at the Sunset Theatre in Wells\, BC\, utilizing objects that have accumulated there throughout its history\, the artist invites participants to conjure portals of connection\, healing\, and good humour within themselves. \nBar & concession open | Children welcome\nEntry: by donation – funds raised will be donated to the Sunset Theatre. \nRachael Chaisson is a multidisciplinary artist working with intersections between sound\, movement and storytelling through objects. She constructs immersive\, meditative sculpture in which the viewer is invited to take time. Her practice takes a twofold path: one examining narrative and communicative relationships within “human space” and our devices\, the other asking questions about the sensory synapses connecting the body with the natural realm. Recurring themes within her work are other-worldly exploration\, microcosms and macrocosms\, and domestic-scale science fiction imaginings. She holds a BFA from Alberta College of Art + Design\, has shown in solo and group shows in home-base Calgary\, participated in the Banff Centre’s Emerging BAiR program and the Canadian Wilderness Artist Residency on the Yukon River. She is currently developing new bodies of work lightning notes\, sentinels\, and swamp thing as per a Canada Council Research + Creation grant. \nShe would like to acknowledge and express utmost gratitude for this time spent on the traditional territories of the Lhtako Dene\, sharing space with the stellar’s jays and foxes. A huge thank you to Island Mountain Arts and all their staff as well as Dave + Karen Jeffery of Sunset Theatre for making this experiment possible.

SUMMARY:Block Printing on Fabric with Mo Hamilton
DESCRIPTION:Block Printing on Fabric and Surface Design with Mo Hamilton!\nJoin Mo Hamilton Artist for this fun two-day winter workshop\, from\nSaturday\, Jan 26th to Sunday\, Jan 27th\, 2019\, 10am – 4pm each day. \nIn this workshop\, Mo will guide students through the process of block printing on fabric. You will learn about creating designs for fabrics\, carving blocks and the process of printing simple repeat patterns. We will explore a variety of techniques from ombre rolls\, two-coloured printing and jigsaw prints. We will cover what makes good design as it applies to fabric\, colour and texture. You will learn how to do offset printing and how to register your stamps so your work has a professional fabric look. \n“As an artist\, I obtain my inspiration from the external world around me\, but reveal in my paintings the internal world of my imagination. By reducing my images to their essential elements\, I can bring simplicity\, myth\, and the primal\, to my explorations of limits and boundaries with the intent of moving beyond them. Recently\, I have worked on a series of paintings that explore the soul’s journey. I have followed my vision to places I had not intended to go allowing my intuition to guide me. I have found power in words and incorporated them in my work; I have used collage and montage to go places I had not been before. I use life story as the dark\, rich compost to generate new creation and have in my most recent paintings worked more intuitively than ever before.” \nEarly Bird Price\n$230 + $30 material fee + GST\n(early bird deposit fee $57.50) \nRegular Price\n$255 + $30 material fee + GST

SUMMARY:'The 100 Houses Project: Reflections on Our Times' Exhibition Opening for Mo Hamilton Artist
DESCRIPTION:The image of home is a powerful\, archetypal symbol for finding our truest self\, or soul. We all have this profound longing to find home\, a place of deep belonging. To come home is to find a place where you can truly be yourself and to be home is to have a refuge from all the outward expectations and be in a place where you can listen to your own heart. When we are in touch with our inner selves home can be wherever we are at that time. \nThe 100 Houses Project that I am working on is a long-term project that began with the question “What is home?”. The idea for this project started with a profound dream I had when my family and I were leaving a home that we had lived in for ten years. This was a place where I had given birth to both of my children and where my husband and I grew from being a couple to becoming a family. Unfortunately\, it wasn’t economically viable for us to stay so we chose to leave because my husband got a steady job up north. I had packed all of our belongings into a moving van and we had our last sleep in our empty house. That night I had a dream that I was living in a house on a bridge. I thought the dream was such a profound visual metaphor for what I was experiencing in that moment because I was no longer staying in this home but I wasn’t at my new place either. I was in that in-between place. This got me thinking of the home as symbol for the soul and how the only steadiness we have is our inner strength. In The 100 Houses Project I use the symbol of the house as a way of expressing the steadiness of our inner homes or selves as we head out on our life’s journey. \nArtist Statement\nAs an artist\, I obtain my inspiration from the external world around me\, but reveal in my paintings the internal world of my imagination. By reducing my images to their essential elements\, I can bring simplicity\, myth\, and the primal\, to my explorations of limits and boundaries with the intent of moving beyond them. Recently\, I have worked on a series of paintings that explore the soul’s journey. I have followed my vision to places I had not intended to go allowing my intuition to guide me. I have found power in words and incorporated them in my work; I have used collage and montage to go places I had not been before. I use life story as the dark\, rich compost to generate new creation and have in my most recent paintings worked more intuitively than ever before.
