On Monday, I mounted a show at the <a href="http://www.dovercourt.org/the-linda-street-art-gallery-a/">Linda Street Gallery</a> in the lobby of the Dovercourt Recreation Centre. The work consists of assemblages made this past summer while a guest at the Main Street studio thanks to <a href="http://annettehegel.com/home.html">Annette Hegel</a> and <a href="http://www.gallery3.ca/artists">Karin Bell</a>. I have also included some of my masks made from found objects. The work will be up for the rest of December. Hope you can come by and see it!</div>

Artists Timothy Hunt and Katie Argyle have forged a longtime friendship based on the exchange of art and ideas in many manifestations including mail art, one page books, collages, off-beat stories and poems, even light-based outdoor sculpture. Now, hundreds of kilometres apart, they continue to inspire, instigate and irritate one another into a state that results in inevitable creative output.<i> 50/50, Against the Grain</i>, brings together the artists' unique reflections on a half century of life. This time they are both using the medium of wood and the results cannot help but go against the grain.Timothy Hunthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12185623001092732302noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8172758004290249514.post-5013723297193110202013-10-09T10:46:00.001-07:002013-10-09T10:46:41.460-07:00We've Created a Monster: Dovercourt Recreation Centre until Oct. 30<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<i>We've Created a Monster</i> is a playful exhibition of fictional and everyday monsters put together by myself and long-time artist/friend <a href="http://plasticmasters.blogspot.com/">Katie Argyle</a>.<br />
<br />
<i>We've Created a Monster</i> ran for August and September at the Burr House Gallery in Richmond Hill. It can be seen in it's latest incarnation at The <a href="http://www.dovercourt.org/the-linda-street-art-gallery-a/2013/10/8/october-2013-timothy-hunt-katie-argyle.html">Linda Street Gallery</a> in the Lobby of <a href="http://dovercourt.org/">Dovercourt Recreation Centre</a>, 411 Dovercourt St., Ottawa for the month of October. The show will be taken down on October 30th to make way for the Community Centre's annual Halloween extravaganza featuring the ever popular haunted house, engineered by students of Carleton University.<br />
<br />

It was a great privilege to visit Katie at her new home in Richmond Hill when we took down the show, and to see evidence of her creative exploits all over the region. Take a minute to vote for her mural in Downtown Markham's <i>Perfect City</i> competition!<br />

I set up my show at the <a href="http://urbanpear.com/">Urban Pear</a> this morning with Chef and owner Ben Baird <a href="https://twitter.com/urbanpear">(twitter). </a>I was welcomed by delicious coffee and was very interested to hear about the food truck the Pear is getting ready to hit the streets in May. You are in for a treat ottawa!</div>

It's very satisfying to see work go up on the walls of such a fine establishment after working away in the studio surrounded by piles of scrap metal. I feel like a groundhog crawling out of my hole. That said, the exhibit looks great in these surroundings, so check out the <a href="http://urbanpear.com/">Pear's website</a> for it's hours and other info.</div>

I tend to do most of my work outside during the friendlier seasons, so the warmth of an indoor workspace was comfort indeed!.<br />

Yes, it is that time of year already! On thursday the kind folks at <a href="http://www.cyclelogik.com/">Cyclelogik</a> will be clearing space on the walls of their shop for the annual art show curated by none other than artist and self-described <i>art-pusher,</i> Andrea Stokes. The opening takes place Friday night and the place is always packed to the rafters (I'm not kidding), so come early and get your Christmas shopping done. Over 40 of this city's intriguing artists are represented with small and medium sized works for every collectors budget. Art, bikes and coffee--an unbeatable combo.

At today's art event, dubbed <i>Refab I </i> (artists showing work with reclaimed materials in a recycling environment) , I was joined by two fabulous interdisciplinary art-friends, <a href="http://annettehegel.com/">Annette Hegel</a>, and <a href="http://www.zenkitchen.ca/Showcase/Currentartexhibition/tabid/8771/vid/9f0f6d15-b010-4ae1-b156-f18584d3e76f/Default.aspx">Nancy Green</a>.

<a href="http://annettehegel.com/">Annette Hegel</a>, a local and international art activist who has done everything (no, really!) , brought intriguing pieces combining miniature figures with reclaimed objects to create arresting environments that challenge ones sense of scale while drawing in political themes. <br />

I arrived at the <a href="http://www.habitatncr.com/">Habitat for Humanity ReStore</a> on Saturday morning in the pouring rain, so the planned outside set-up for my work was definitely not going to happen. After years of being bullied by the weather at outdoor markets, craft fairs and art shows I was very content with the contingency plan of setting up inside the warm dry store with the big vat-o-coffee and great abundance of brownies. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
It was a great pleasure to meet Myrna and the welcoming staff and have the leisure of setting up my masks here and there throughout the store.<br />

While the rain continued to keep the hoards away, I contented myself, tinkering with an old typewriter that I was determined to take home with me, and which Myrna ended up giving to me as gift for coming to the store--I couldn't be happier! More and more people appeared as the day moved along, and despite the rain I talked to a lot of interesting folks and lots of drop-offs were made to the E-waste site. BTW, I believe that both ReStore's in Ottawa are now accepting E-waste for recycling on a regular basis <a href="http://www.habitatncr.com/">(check their website)</a>.<br />
I was also pleased to meet Stone Sculptor, <a href="http://www.uwessculptures.ca/">Uwe Foehring</a>, who is on Staff and also is the creator of the towering e-waste sculpture outside the store. <br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks again to Myrna for the invite. I met some great people, found a new source for art materials, oh ya, I sold some artwork as well!<br />

I just took down my work at <a href="http://zenkitchen.ca/">Zen Kitchen</a> and will be delivering the rest of the sold artwork in the next week.<br />
<br />
I was thrilled to get a call from Myrna at the ReStore, inviting me to show my work as a part of their launch for a new e-waste drop off site. On Saturday, weather permitting, I'll be setting up a display of artwork from my <i>Tribal Masks of Urban Culture</i> outside the store. If it rains, I'll be it inside. Come by and bring your old plug-in thingys that don't work (we all have them) and make room for some...art? <a href="http://www.habitatncr.com/">The NCR Habitat for Humanity ReStore</a> is located at 7 Enterprise Ave. (Off Merivale Rd. in Ottawa).<br />

Heather had lunch and visited my show at <a href="http://zenkitchen.ca/">Zen Kitchen</a> with her daughter. She made this photo-collage of two masks in the show and wore this mask earring on a necklace (bottom left) that I made in 1989! I used to cut up old copper plumbing pipes, heat them with a torch, flatten them out and pound designs into them. The first ones I made were pretty heavy, which probably explains why it is now on a necklace!<br />

I didn't even realize until later that I could buy copper sheets that were already shiny and flat. I had forgotten that I was making masks from "junk" all those years ago. Thanks Heather!<br />

In case you thought you'd missed it, <a href="http://chinatownremixed.ca/">Chinatown Remixed</a> runs until June 12, so there's still time to wander over to Somerset West and check out local artists hosted by this neighbourhood's interesting and diverse businesses.<br />
<br />
I set up my show on the Friday before opening day at <a href="http://zenkitchen.ca/">Zen Kitchen</a>. The vernissage went splendidly, with a steady stream of friends, acquaintances and other curious folk passing through.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks to all who came for your kind words and comments and of course a special thanks to those who added my work to their own art collections! A huge shout-out as well to all the organizers and volunteers who made this unique event happen. My only regret was that I was too busy to take in the festivities going on outside along Somerset street!<br />

A hearty thanks to the staff and proprietors Dave Loan and Caroline Ishii for making me feel so welcome at <a href="http://zenkitchen.ca/">Zen Kitchen</a> and creating such an inviting atmosphere. Caroline kept platters filled with chipotle hummus and poppadums and gluten free bread for dipping, not to mention pieces of delectable chocolate cake!<a href="http://zenkitchen.ca/Menus/ChefCarolinesMenu/tabid/7703/Default.aspx">(see menu)</a>. Understandably, many visitors lingered! Check out Caroline Ishii's on CBC's <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/allinaday/columnists/dinner/2012/05/09/d-is-for-dinner---fiddleheads/">All in a Day</a> where she serves up a fiddlehead recipe and plugs my show at the restaurant :-)<br />

I went a-posterin' in my neighborhood on the weekend. Here's a taste of Chinatown Remixed around Main Street and the Canal. It's always bustling around here; Spring is in the air, Market season has begun, bike races, Tulip Festival...<br />

My friend Randy Cartwright introduced me to the pop-rivet gun back in Sudbury, when we were working on a friend's rusted out Camaro. He could fix or make anything and won all possible awards in Shop class from grade 7, right through high school. <br />

In our street-vending days on<br />
Ste. Catherine st., I used it to rivet pieces of hardware to leather bracelets, and it has been useful for making and repairing all sorts of things since.<br />

It has been especially handy for making masks, like the ones I'll be
showing at<a href="http://zenkitchen.ca/"> Zen Kitchen</a> for <a href="http://chinatownremixed.ca/">Chinatown Remixed</a>. A true craftsman like
Randy would find a way to hide the rivets, but I like the way they look. Like my old math teacher
used to say..."show your work!"<br />

The odd bits of junk I use to make collage, sculpture, and the masks for my upcoming show at <a href="http://zenkitchen.ca/"><b>Zen Kitchen</b></a> for <a href="http://chinatownremixed.ca/"><i>Chinatown Remixed</i></a>, are culled from here, there and everywhere.<br />

I have a large collection of scrap metal pieces that have fallen off cars that I pick up off the road and throw in the milk crate on the back of my bike on my rides home from work in the wee hours. Most of these have been sculpted by rust and salt and flattened by traffic.<br />
<br />
I am also a collector of bikes and a lot of bike parts make it into my work. This bike was rescued from the canal--Check out the zebra mussels that have attached themselves to the bell.<br />

Friends an neighbours who see me at work offer me things from their garages and basements and trunks of cars.<br />
<br />
<br />
Don't kid yourself, Ottawa is not all tulips and Parliament buildings. We have our share of nitty gritty vacant lots, dead ends and it is sad and surprising how many things show up in and along the banks of the Rideau River where I canoe with my sons.<br />
