Out of Studio

Staged still life compositions of travel studios, real and fabricated, reference borrowed locations and use the artist’s tools and artworks as props. By staging an impromptu studio as a setting for work, the viewer is invited to step into the artist’s view: a setting to prepare for contemplation and to rise to the occasion of work.

Among the locations depicted are temporary studios set up alongside moss-clad gargoyles at the Vancouver Hotel, a Strathcona alley view to the city centre, an impromptu watercolor studio set up inside a San Francisco conservatory, and now another unique location—the Listel Hotel during the 2017 Capture Photography Festival.
