I am thrilled to have been accepted in Rewilding the Body Eclectic, a five-week thematic residency at the Banff Centre for Arts and Culture this winter. The residency is led by artist Zachari Logan and museum director Siddhartha V. Shah. I will be working with the figurative through conversation and artistic exploration alongside a number of other artists. This will the first time I will have the opportunity to actively develop my long-standing figurative practice in an environment of reflection and support.
