From HEART THROB
This project brought the private space of a fantasy bedroom into the public. The audience was invited to take digital photographs of themselves and others while in the bed via a camera mounted on the ceiling and a remote. The bed was made to look like a cliche romantic fantastical location with rose petals and a pink satin bedspread.

Terrace BC is beautiful.
Messy brain, messy bedroom.
After a discussion in my VAST class with Randy Cutler, I came to the realization that Vancouver is in dire need of writing and response to art shows and events (my own events very much included). Thus, ART PUKE was born! The review style is open format, which means that anyone can contribute reviews, photographs, videos etc. by sending it in to vanartpuke@gmail.com. I like the open format because it takes the pressure off myself to do everything (kinda can be a control freak) and also allows the project to turn into something unexpected.

Since the funding for Vancouver arts has been slashed so drastically, there is a pool of incredible artists that are left unsupported. One option is to give up on the scene in general…but we see it differently. This is a time to start a renaissance of our own. With all the power in the hands of the artists themselves, it’s time to band together and SPREAD.
MOFUNCITY and TRIFECTA have partnered with Chapel Arts, Vancouver’s most… unique gallery, to showcase emerging talents within the city. One BIG opening on June 3rd will be supplemented with four weeks of showings May 26th-June 16th. Our main focus is to provide a platform and plenty of coverage to make sure the names and the works are SPREAD.
Submissions are open to any visual art: performance, media. sculpture, ceramics, installation, painting, printmaking, drawing, design. There is no specific theme other then the promotion of the 50 selected artist. Artists will show for 3 weeks. Many works will be conceptual but others may be formal. Each work will be available for sale at or less then $300 with some works being unmontizable. There will be a fully staffed sales table: 100% of sales on the evening of the event will go to the artist, 90% on any other date within the month.
* * * * Please read submission guidelines carefully and include all requested information.
PERFORMANCE: have the option of using a stage or the venue/place. We give you free reign with your concept. Include a detailed idea/outline of proposed work.
MEDIA: there will be a dark room for media works as well as an enormous scale projection on the building fascade. Please send all media files in a .mov format or be available for viewing online. Include title, length, any other information you feel necessary.
2D Work: please include title,dimensions of work, year completed, any special hanging needs, price. All work must be ready to hang (framed, stretched, unstretched).
3D Work: please include title, dimensions, weight, year completed, any display needs, price. Outdoor sculptures/happenings available on roof and patio. Installation is available in each room, feel free to view the space any Thursday.
