Fritz Haeg

Haeg is a Contemporary artist who created "Animal Estates" in 2008, this is a project that is created with the intention to assist with animals that struggle living in the urban landscape. The artist created habitats that can house animals within the city. His work relates to mine because I also enjoy commenting on environmental concerns and animals struggle in their degraded habitats.

Ron Mueck

Australian hyper-realist sculptor, introduced to by my sculpture professor Lyn Carter. Mueck works on large scale sculptures of the human figure. When I think of Muecks sculptures I compare them to Evan Pennys realistic sculptures. Both artists find a way to create extremely realistic sculptures using extremely different techniques.

Exploring the relationship between the use of industrial material to create an organic object. 

experimenting with the invisibility of the sculpture within the landscape - urban and natural.

"Spiral Jetty"

Robert Smithson

American Artist known for his land art. Smithson created Spiral Jetty in 1970. Spiral Jetty is a sculpture constructed in Rozal Point, Utah. Constructed entirely out of mud, salt crystals, basalt rocks and water. Smithsons sculpture is site-oriented, and it can only be found and viewed in the site it has been created in. The work reveals it self when the tide lowers and becomes invisible when the tide rises again.

Wolfgang Laib

German Conceptual Artist who works with natural materials. In a number of Laibs works he uses organic materials. My favourite sculptures by the artist are the ones that are created using pollen as a sculptural medium. His works are about the act of the artist collecting the pollen and then installing the pollen within the gallery space.

DESIGN EXCHANGE: Stefan Sagmeister - THE HAPPY SHOW

Internationally known graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister had a Exhibition at the Design Exchange in Toronto, ON. His exhibition allowed the audience to take a walk into the designers mind, as he attempts to increase his happiness via mediation, cognitive therapy, and mood-altering pharmaceuticals. His exhibition was interactive and allowed the audience to participate in many of his artworks. One of his pieces was 10 gum-ball machines filled with yellow gum-balls. below the machines said "How happy are you on a scale of 1 to 10?" Then the audience gets to pick a gum-ball from a gum-ball machine that applies to them. What I enjoyed most about Sagmeisters exhibition was how he drew on the wall himself with black sharpy marker. The act of the designer drawing the explanations himself made me feel closer to the presence of the artist, in comparison to typed explanations!

Volume: Hear Here

Audio Exhibition at the Blackwood Gallery, Curated by Christof Migone.

Hear Here was a interactive Exhibition that involved works by numerous artists who experiment with Audio as a medium within their work. The exhibition included many Audio Artworks that involved viewer interaction in order to activate the pieces. While at the Exhibition I enjoyed experimenting with sound inside the "Sound igloo." This was an igloo constructed out of speakers. Inside the igloo was 5 microphones hanging for the viewers to interact with. The noise the audience makes within the igloo projects back out through the speakers surrounding them. Each work within the Exhibition explored sounds in a new and inventive way.
