The Art of Junk, in the Ottawa Citizen, June 18, 2012

Peter Simpson did a review on my show  at Zen Kichen for the Ottawa Citizen (thanks Peter!), which first appeared online on his blog Big Beat, and the following week in the print edition of the paper. Note that the show will run until the end of August.







Also reviewed in the article are two other artists you must check out : the always interesting  Marc Adornato, with 3 simultaneous shows at Shanghai Restaurant , the Daily Grind, and the Hintonburg Public House; and John Sekerka with a collection of playable art guitars at Gigspace.





 The print edition appeared June 18, 2012, with different  pictures.  You can view it here at PressDisplay.com

Don't Think Too Hard--From the Archives

From April 2000, another collage from an old bundle uncovered while packing. I did quite a number of these, mostly cut from the Ottawa Citizen or the National Post. I usually made them when I couldn't sleep. I got a big kick out of linking random sentences. When we were kids, my siblings and I would turn the sound down on the TV and turn up the sound on an unrelated radio program and laugh hysterically at the incongruity. We made our own fun.
