2014

Gallery, Corridor213, 

Elements and methods used: native (Canadian) beaver pelt stretchers, rope, vintage horse bit, cedar wood knot, steel pipe, vintage wallpaper, acrylic paint and gauze. Yet another dark and puzzling sequel of his VANITAS series, this new installation consists of “treated” ready-mades, natural elements and objects collected from across both wild and urban Ontario. We cannot help but associate the beaver stretchers with the proverbial vintage portraits of HIM and HER (tastefully presented in identical oval frames), removed from their original place of honour, temporarily suspended in time, in a transient position, now awaiting their fate and about to be discarded. They seem to resonate distantly with H.CH. Andersen’s fairytale titled “Everything in the right place”…   

Gallery room size: 14' x 66'
