Feature: Upcoming at XPACE



Feature:

Upcoming at XPACE


XPACE is housing a Residency for three recent OCADU grads for the month of July, we are very excited to see what these talented artists will come up with! Krystina and Lee are both Printmaking grads, and Mason is a Sculpture/Installation grad. They are using both the Main Space, as well as XBASE as their studios, and have been given 24/7 access. On the 27th they will be showing some of the work they've come up with in their time here. Rumor has it that there will be an art catapult!


Krystina Plante is actively involved in craft and zine culture, and works as the event coordinator for OCAD University's Annual Book Arts Fair. Her most recent work centres on the surrounding notions of collecting, the mundane, and the book as an art form.

Mason Mummery's figurative caricature sculptures are inspired by cartoons, satire and farce. Through explorations and axaggerations of the human subject, the caricature figures become a malleable portrait of humanity.

Lee Aaron Wiesblatt's interdisciplinary work is informed by narrative, the multiple, process, and experimentation. Dual interests in fine and vernacular art inform his developing practice.
