SUMMARY:Mind and Body - September Creative Encounters Vernissage
DESCRIPTION:Come join us for an exhibition of the works of Aline Bee\, Aleks Gold\, Imogen Reid\, Casper Slack\, and Kieran Vogt \n \nAline Bee: \nAline Bee (she/her) is a visual artist\, poet\, and transfemme sapphic disaster. Her past lives were lived in New Zealand and Finland\, and she now makes her home in so-called Ottawa.\n\nHer recent work is about bereavement\, longing\, and self-love. In them she moves through grief for her past into the fierce joy of her present moment.\nAleks Gold is a freelance artist and illustrator based in Ottawa\, Ontario. \nHis work is best known for its interlacing of nature\, folklore\, and fantasy in the exploration of deep\nwounds\, growth and healing\, and the haunting perseverance of the soul beyond death; an epitaph for\nthe wild\, beautiful\, and rotten. His art asks the viewer for a willingness to seek comfort and connection\nwithin the macabre and unsightly parts of us; to recognize decay\, loss\, and grief as common threads that\nbind us all. \nAleks primarily works in digital (Clip Studio Paint) and graphite. He often experiments with other\nmediums such as linocut\, acrylic\, and watercolour. His creative sights are currently set on adding\nembroidery\, sculpture\, and woodburning into his portfolio. \nMore of his work can be found online under the handle TOOTH&BRANCH.\nYou can access his portfolio by scanning the QR code below or visiting TOOTHANDBRANCH.COM \n  \nImogen Reid: I’m Imogen Reid\, a hard femme trans dyke multimedia\, multidisciplinary artist and author who uses art as a tool of survival and as a means to find a voice and dignity in a world that strives to rob me of both these things. \n  \nCasper Slack: Casper Slack is an independent artist and designer living and working in Treaty 13 territory (Toronto). A designer\, illustrator\, and animator with over 10 years of experience with both in-house and freelance work across the spectrum of marketing\, product design\, branding\, and film. \n  \nKieran Vogt: Kieran Vogt is an Ottawa based artist currently focusing on borosilicate flameworked glass sculpture. He graduated from Algonquin College’s Illustration and Concept Art program before discovering flameworking in 2022. Nature and the fantastical have been lifelong interests of his and his ongoing series of floral-esque organisms draws on this to create a hybrid of the real and the unreal. While he is inspired by the entire natural world\, he has a particular fondness for the diverse forms of insects\, plants\, and fungi. \n  \n
