This is my graduation show, where I will be showing a project that I have been working on since January. This is a pretty important show for me.

INmaterial
An Exhibition of Emerging Craftspeople

On at the Lennox Contemporary Gallery April 30th – May 10th 2009
Opening Reception: April 30th 2009. 7-10pm.

United by a love for all things Craft, INmaterial serves as the culminating exhibition of work made by the graduating students of the School of Crafts & Design at Sheridan College.

INmaterial combines the efforts of the textiles, ceramics, glass and furniture students, as they present an engaging look into the objects being made at the forefront of contemporary Canadian craft and design.

This grouping of work may provide a forum for which to expose a larger public to such practices, as the work challenges the application of traditionally learned skills to expand upon a greater definition of craft.

The grouping of objects presented here may act as a showcase in the ongoing dialogue that exists for the each of the makers, as they continue to create meaningful objects that celebrate a common love for the materials and processes respective to each of their practices.

The breadth of work offered up within the context of this show serves to chart the accomplishments of a group of emerging craftspeople whose work demonstrates the shared values and commitment to a specified craft expression, one which will carry each of these artist forward as they enter into their own professional careers.

We invite you to come and join us for the opening of INmaterial, Thursday, May 30th from 7 – 10 pm, as we explore a body of textile, ceramic, furniture, and glass work that is of-the-moment and vital, charting out a larger discourse into the ever evolving landscape of contemporary Canadian craft.
