White Water Gallery Events 2009

	“We Practice What We Preach” is an annual exhibition at the White Water Gallery of works by Nipissing University Faculty of Education students, support staff and faculty. Visual arts exhibitions form one of the most exciting and highly-motivating aspects of any visual arts program. More...
	The work preoccupies itself with themes revolving around the body – the body as deconstructed, dehumanized and objectified. In particular, these stitched fabrics may call to mind notions of sexuality, alienation, and trauma. These pieces speak to a very specific trauma that associates with the abject and abnormal growth of disease. Hence, they focus on an examination of the body in a state of estrangement through disturbing loss. More...
	The Fine Arts Graduate Exhibition is an annual event that brings together students, faculty, and the wider North Bay community to celebrate the accomplishments of Nipissing University’s graduating class. For the participating artists, the exhibition marks a transition between their academic studies and their new role as professional practicing artists. The exhibition is juried by a panel of guest artists, professionals, and faculty. More...
	This audio environment is based on the dialogues of Brenda Jones. The scripting (Voice #1) is spontaneous and follows a set of points/questions we mutually agreed upon.

	Fascinated by language, power structures, and systems of control, I often end up constructing Neo-Baroque, maximalist bizarreries: video installations, animations, and performances. My ongoing body of work, An Anthology of Familiar Tones, addresses the performance and interpretation of musical language, and what it means to be in tune. More...
	The small sky panels of Motel America, painted or sketched on site during various road trips, explore the perpetual flux of natural systems, a cyclical passage of time, visual and physical memory and, above all, a connection to the infinite through the experience of the present moment. More...
	The fluidity of the passage of time and our realization of our own humanity as time moves forwards, binds us all together. Water and it’s unearthly properties has been used as a metaphor to illustrate the uneasiness and the anxiety caused by major life transitions. More...
	Humanity and nature collide outside my front door. In a world that values multi-tasking, speed and competition, I seek stillness and serenity. Nature is my muse. More...
	Bodily Functions is an ongoing series of small scale works dealing with the physical make-up of our bodies as a collection of individual cells, organs and systems. The body has been a continual subject of my practice and these works try to re-imagine ourselves by looking at the ecosystems, the strange wildness contained within our physical forms. More...
	The White Water Gallery is proud to present the ongoing North Bay Comic Jam.  A comic Jam is more or less a ‘build a strip’ wherein anyone can start a panel or add a panel to the strip to make a collaborative piece of work. More...
