Public Domaine at La Gâité Lyrique, Paris, France

2011-06-21T00:56:00.000-07:00

During my time in LA this passed winter I was able to catch up with Yogi Proctor, a creative individual who has done a lot in and out of skateboarding. Most notably he worked with Sole Tech, Popwar Skateboards and was the man responsible for introducing me to RVCA in 2004, a label I continue to work with to this day.

Recently Yogi was asked to curate part of a large show in Paris titled "Public Domaine" at La Gâité Lyrique. I was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time to re-connect with him and after checking out my new work he chose a few paintings from my recent shows in France/Berlin to be included in the show.

The show opened last week and I have been able to track down (via google) some photographic evidence that my art was actually included in the show. Digging the square spotlight.

The show runs into August.

Half the paintings from my show "At the Time of Fear" that were shown at Spacejunk Galleries in France late last year are being shown in Berlin this April.
The show opens on April 16 at Okazi Gallery in Friedrichshain. If I was you I'd stop by "Hot Dog (&) Soup" on your way over to the opening. It's a win win in my books.

Toronto Hearts Japan.

2011-03-25T16:07:00.000-07:00

My good friend and mother of two small kids, Katheryn Ruppert-Dazai has managed (between dealing with a toddler and a baby) to organize and gathered together a pretty stellar line up of artists to help raise money for the good people of Japan.

Where! Gladstone Hotel, 1214 Queen Street West, Toronto, ON.

When! March 31-April 5

What do I do? Come to our opening party on April 1 from 7-11pm.

Your $20 at the door enters you in our raffle (and makes
your wallet a better person).

What do I do next? View and bid on the works from 12-5pm, March 31-5.

But what then? Come to our closing party on April 5 from 5-8pm and
pick up your work!

For more info check out the Facebook page and torontoheartsjapan.com.

I was a little delayed in getting my contribution in so it might not make it there for the opening but the auction is going on for a week so you will have enough time to get your bid in plus all the action tends to happen in the last minutes.

Here's a preview of my piece.

"Togetherliness" ink and graphite on paper. 10"x13". 2011.

2011/12

Sleazy-Rider.

Step Child Snowboards just posted images of the series of boards I did for them. I imagine since they are for 2011/12 you won't see them in shops until early fall. Giving you the whole summer to save up your lawn mowing money so you can grab one of these suckers when they are released.

It looks they are already a hit.

Clone - Spain

2011-03-15T10:56:00.000-07:00

The Spain based magazine Clone just published a profile of my work in their most recent issue.

Phonographic.

2011-02-21T20:48:00.000-08:00

I did this quick Q&A about music when I was in Europe last fall.

Dynamo.

2011-02-19T16:07:00.000-08:00

I share a Vancouver studio with a bunch of talented and fun group of artists on the 100 block of west Hastings, as some of you might know it can get a little sketchy around there as it's a stone throws from the infamous Main and Hastings but regardless it's the type of neighbourhoods that artistes tend to gravitate towards as the sketchiness keeps rents low. We share the block with a well established studio known as Red Gate. Recently the folks there have resurrected their street level gallery. They approached our space to put together a group show. It opens this week.
