Socially Engaged Art

I am honoured to be named the 2025 Pierre Lassonde Artist in Residence at Mount Allison University School of Fine Art.  For the next six months, I am exploring questions of housing justice through the development of a large-scale public artwork that dissects / troubles the structural injustices of the social relationships within our housing sector. The full piece involves a poetic gesture that saves a house from demolition by moving it to a new location with a barge in the Atlantic Ocean. For the residency I’ll be focusing on the creation of a series of art objects, images, scores and videos to develop the logistics, aesthetic impact and social structure of the piece. I’m also looking forward to connecting with folks about the state of housing in Sackville.
