Contact Photography Festival 2017: 'WEAVE ME' by Jen Arron of Akin Dupont at The Blackcat Artspace
WEAVE ME is a new series of weaved photographs by Jen Arron of Akin Dupont. The exhibition will be shown at The Blackcat Artspace as part of the Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival 2017. The exhibit is a duo show with photographer Alexa Mazzarello and runs May 16 - 31. Opening night May 16th, 7-10pm, all are welcome.
What the show is about:
Two artists finding meaning in natural materials and how they can inform the way we live. Mazzarello has turned to plant life and landscapes to study connections between this world and the human form in her series THE DREAMING PLANT. Arron’s WEAVE ME pieces are woven studies, each one exposing raw edges and hidden meanings through imagery and natural fibres.
Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival 2017 is the largest photography event in the world with over 1500 artists in 200 exhibitions and happenings throughout the month in the Greater Toronto Area.
