🌿’RISE’ (for inspiration) created with @keithdungeon @baillat_studio @ottomata.studio @diagraf and Dennis the actor from the Danforth. Here’s a Recap of the journey through @tokyosmoke #bellwoods location: commission for #ts1017 ✌️ 1. Welcome, coffee, high fives 2. New day dawns, art direction & sounds by Justin Broadbent 3. Side door, limited access 4. Janitor room, custom built faux room with no visible exit. Where’s the art Janitor man? (also by @keithdungeon et moi, we live for awkward encounters and speakeasy vibes) 5. Find the secret door and creep on through... 6. Laser like Water ⚡️an all-encompassing installation of sound, laser and contemplation. Creative direction @baillat_studio live laser program @ottomata.studio custom musical score @diagraf ✨✨✨ Was a dream to collaborate and make this happen for the special day 🌿only possible via creative notions and trust of @boygirl @danieljosef @keithdungeon @baillat_studio (there’s a part 2 to this story) PHOTOS courtesy of @tokyosmoke and @michaelkazimierczuk . . . . #legalizationday #1017 #cannabisculture #temporaryart #torontothebrave #brandandart #speakeasy #trinitybellwoods #toarts #jacqwest #artexperience #laserart
Night time tests for stackt’s upcoming art commission on Bathurst with artist @mango_peeler ✨eeeExciting week behind and ahead as containers literally stack up at @stacktmarket and Mango Peeler brings his magic to the site ✨ The talented people everyday linking into this project is amazing, and gives me that excited feeling in the back of my throat. 🙌 Kudos @mr_ruby and @tylerkeenan and #stacktMarket crew for taking an unused lot downtown and turning it into something useful, necessary and best, fun! 👀 As I see it, stackt is CITY LIFE. The tastes, the inspirations, shops, and local entrepreneurs. Nature creeping through in wild ways and rotating public art and events bring people together easily. Toronto is lucky! #culturehub #recruitingartists #allmyownwords . . . . #creativeplacemaking #stacktmarket #toronto #culturalhub #culturalhubs #urbanfarming #artistinresidence #canadianflowersweek #rallyossington #torontothebrave #mappmtl #firstfriday #chefinresidence #communityspace #openMarch2019 #temporaryartinstallations #toculturehub #brewery #eventspace
Toronto is on the rise on a global scale ✨ Yet as we reach new size, we’re bursting at the seams from inefficiency and incremental action. Subway platforms are today dangerously crowded, homeless crisis looming, council overloaded, rush hours like LA, and million dollar starter homes. I’m voting for a shift, a bold vision with the guts to get the city moving and more equitable. For me it’s @jennifer_keesmaat for Mayor✨ She’s the citybuilder Toronto deserves. ✌️be sure to vote! #torontoelection #toelxn
