Continuous learning

alana — Mon, 18 Mar 2013 01:00:57 +0000

A key part of my art practice is stretching my boundaries and trying new things: new techniques, new materials, or new combinations. I enjoy taking workshops where I get exposed anything outside my normal practice .

This weekend I am looking forward to “Sticks and Stones ” workshop presented by Alice Vander Vennan http://www.alicevandervennen.ca/prod/workshops.asp

No matter what area of interest , I strongly believe that you are never too old, nor too “expert” to learn. Just see how the youngest saplings teaches us all to stay rooted, and reach high.

reveDna wins Honourable Mention at “Time Frame”!

alana — Sat, 04 Jun 2011 01:00:37 +0000

I am happy report that “Corn” by reveDna Collective won Honourable mention at “Time Frame”. My piece “Saw clock” in the same show has been sold.

“Time Frame” features a wide variety of wonderful art: photography, painting, and mixed media – by a group of talented artists. This shows runs until July 10th at the beautifully restored Alton Mill Gallery. A trip to the mill site, galleries and surrounding countryside is definitely worth the trip and makes for a wonderful outing for the whole family. www.altonmill.ca

Who or what is Ayseef?

alana — Sat, 14 May 2011 20:41:35 +0000

Ayseef (pronounced A – see – eff) is the phonetic spelling of the letters “A C F”. These are my initials.

Ayssef is a complex issue and here you will find the basics of why Ayseef may be dormant.

Ayseef is nirgendwo.
Ayseef does not seem to move or do do anything, yet Ayseef is always in motion.
Ayseef keeps her hands warm by building a sculpture from nothing.
Ayseef keeps her feet warm by scavenging teh streets for found objects.

I don’t know what Ayseef is. You tell me once you figure it out.
Ayseef is nirgends.
Somedays Ayseef does not exist.
