Taking place on Sunday, October 5th at 1:00pm at Acadia University Art Gallery in Wolfville, ceramicist Marc Courtemanche will speak about his work with sculpture and installation, using clay as if it were wood.
My work is rooted in questions of spirituality and morality. Compositions are calculated, controlled and attempt to reach perfection. They are resolved. Conflict has been removed. They are intended to act as a counterpoint to our chaotic society and the lack of control I have as an individual struggling with my place.
Emerging artists Angela Glanzmann, Kate Walchuk and Stephanie Yee have been individually paired with established artists and mentors: Barbara Lounder, Eryn Foster and Wilma Needham.
