COLLECTIVE MURAL IN KAMLOOPS - EN FRANCAIS - 2020
On this beautiful weekend of May, I had the chance to meet the francophones and francophiles of Kamloops to create this very joyful & colourful deconstructed mural. I had been planning this project with Association Francophone de Kamloops since the Fall so it was very satisfying to see it come to life. A total of approximately 50 people, kids and adults, took a brush and added a little of themselves in this collaborative effort which will be displayed at AFK headquarters and travelling through schools in the next few months. Everyone’s talent and attention to detail made my role of guiding the mural feel like a breeze. Thank you Kamloops for having me! I hope this mural brightens your day as much as it did for me!
CULTURE DAYS ART workshop - Revelstoke, BC - 2020
I had the amazing opportunity to work with Rob Buchanan as my mentor for BC Culture Days 2020, which is a program that celebrates arts in communities across the province. In the Fall of 2020, I organized a collective mural workshop for teenagers and adults held at the Revelstoke Visual Arts Centre. My role during our in-person activity, is to guide the group through the process of painting a 3x10’ canvas. The following step consists of drawing letters with markers on clear plastic film and finally gluing them on the canvas. Once all the letters are assembled, it reveals a french word which definition is closely related to the team work applied in the workshop.
ART IN THE PARK - PARKS CANADA ART RESIDENCY - Glacier national park - 2018
'Art in the Park' celebrates the idea of nature inspired art by gathering a bunch of creatives together and sending them out into the hills for a week of art and exploring. Through the program they hope to raise awareness to local residents, staff and visitors about the beauty that exists inside our parks along with the different visions and interpretations it can evoke.

THE DREAM MACHINE - LUNA FEST - Revelstoke, BC - 2018
Originally from Eastern Canada, Bambi, Kate Shea and Hayley Stewart always dreamed of something bigger and Revelstoke has become their Dream Machine. With so many opportunities to mix hard work with playing even harder this place has become a mecca for the creative. Using this structure to signify a brain, the source of dreams and the bicycles powering the light, this makes for an intense sense of accomplishment just like the feeling of reaching and manifesting your goals and ultimately your dreams.
