The bold and determined brushstrokes are created by both intention and spontaneity and reflect his interpretation of the world around him.

I want to share a new exciting art podcast that will be premiering next week, called In/Tension. In/Tension, produced by Toronto-based The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery, is a limited podcast series of intimate, thought-provoking and accessible conversations with emerging, mid-career, and established contemporary visual artists across Canada. Detailing the ideas, inspirations and experiences that fuel their art, In/Tension aims to shed light on the breadth of the Canadian contemporary art scene and provide a platform for diverse artistic voices to dive deep into their creative intentions.
