Whispers, 2010, graphite and gold leaf on washi

My recent drawing, Whispers, has been chosen to be included in The Japanese Paper Place’s, Drawing on Washi: the presence of the void.

Washi is the Japanese word for the traditional papers made from the long inner fibres of three plants, wa meaning Japanese and shi meaning paper. – Japanese Paper Place

The exhibition will feature 20 drawings on beautiful Washi paper and will be on exhibition from June 4th to June 30th, 2010 at the Japanese Paper Place. This exhibition takes place in connection with the Washi Summit taking place in Toronto in June.

I am so pleased to announce that my work was chosen as Best in Show in the Art of Resistance Exhibition at the Kennedy Gallery in North Bay. The Art of Resistance was a great exhibition with many strong pieces, so I am honoured to have been recognized with this award.

Below is an image of the work installed.
