Numen Gallery Invitation postcard 2007Numen Gallery is lovely. So are the owners Celine and Scott.They have put really careful consideration into everything.
We set up the "Wonderland" exhibition last night and edited out some of the work that may have looked great in the studio but didn't work as well in the gallery. Some of the work looked fabulous in the gallery but was so so in the studio. A good reminder to see the work in place before deciding what to show.
The white, heavily crusted globes are even more effective in these new surroundings.My favourite, however, is a tiny dark orb looking like a little toad nestled with it's companions. A few of the globes are now lit from within allowing a soft. blue light to glow through the holes. The gut balls have taken on a very sensual presence and really work with the felt balls and snake skin pupae.
You will have to come and see "Wonderland" on Saturday October 27 @2-4pm. Numen Gallery 120-1058 Mainland.

aaaaaaaaaaarr when i lived in vancouver i didn't know fascinating artists like yourself------can't get there to see yours or Kirsten's shows--poop
Break a leg! (Pupa?)
wish I lived closer so coming to see them in person was an option... they look scrumptious :-)
How does one break one's pupa?
The show is now ready to go with fancy lights and all. That and shadow boxes actually made them look a little more important or something. I'll take more pictures when I have a minute.
Wish you were closer so you could come. Thank you for the encouragement.
