Artists Sandra Brewster, Stephen Fakiyesi and Camille Turner challenge notions of “blackness” and representation. Sandra Brewster’s series of mixed media silk screens juxtapose portraits and silhouettes of young men in “bad boy” poses with imagery of toys and objects typically associated with little boys. Stephen Fakiyesi’s prints of oversize playing cards feature images of black kings and queens while Camille Turner’s digital photographs of Miss Canadiana in and around Hamilton’s challenge assumptions about Canadian identity and normative beauty. As part of the popular James St. North Art Crawl, Miss Canadiana will mark her return to her hometown of Hamilton. In their respective works each artist creates a multilayered space wherein blackness is positioned as a marker of normality.

* Miss Canadiana’s appearance is co-presented by Outerregion

Along with the idea of working subconsciously is the scientific process. In this way, a highly structured step-by-step process of creating is then contrasted with randomly interchangeable variables. These variables are distinguished before the process endures itself - however, they are interchangeable from edition to edition. This in itself creates a contradiction of thought, yet visually is fluid as an abstract work of art.

Opening Reception: Friday, June 11th 7:30 pm to 10:00 pm
Members' Reception: Friday, June 11th 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm


“Core Images 2” is the culminating exhibition from The Print Studio’s two Art Education Programs: Artists in the Schools & Schools in the Studio and ECO Art. These programs bring artists into the schools and bring schools into the studio to create and produce age/stage appropriate print media. The chosen print media practices complement and enhance the social studies, math and science curricula. As well, students learn about local and provincial environmental issues. From an early age, children create images that express their understanding of the world. We build on these experiences, providing opportunities for students to perceive, respond, create and communicate through art. Please visit and view the work of the next generation of creative thinkers.

The Open
Brad Isaacs and Peter Karuna
April 16th to June 5 2010

Curated by Ola Wlusek
In the Main Gallery


Opening Reception: Friday, May 14th 7:30 pm to 10:00 pm
Members' Reception: Friday, May 14th 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm



The Open is an investigation into the natural and conquered worlds by two Hamilton-based artists, Brad Isaacs and Peter Karuna. Focusing on their personal ethics and individual modes of production, the artists explore psychological and physical notions of human, animal, and time through their black and white photo-based practices. Isaacs points to a rupture between ‘domesticated’ and ‘the wild’
while questioning the concealed and unexpected resonance between animals and human domain. Karuna investigates photography’s concern with time as he visually borrows that moment from a particular time and place for subsequent contemplation. The Open is an attempt to uncover the element of the symbolic and the magical in the menacingly candid relationships, which stylistically combine the staged aesthetic and perfect timing.

I try to portray in my artwork the things we take for granted day to day. I like to show the natural, untouched, undisturbed beauty of our landscapes and the environment surrounding them. I want to show the spontaneous formations that our landscapes create, whether in the land and water, the atmosphere, the flora, or all three. Even though nature seems very simple at times, it is to me, far more complex than you realize.

I try to capture the motion of emotions and convey the concept of “the joy of being in the continual present” and “living in the moment” in my work. I use abstract geometry as well, which is a structure of mind as much as it is a physical entity that evokes a heightened awareness of our own being.

These are not only portraits; they are my ghosts, my inspiration.

They are not only the faces of these artists but they represent all the people from whom I have learned.

This is my tribute to all the teachers and artists that have been involved in some way in the development of my career as a visual artist since I was a child.

Last summer, my sisters and I went hiking in the Mühlviertel in Upper Austria, north of the Danube. Halfway into a day of wandering through woodlots and along fields and streams, we suddenly came upon the border between Austria and the Czech Republic. Remnants of historical differences cast an eerie shadow on the sunny meadow. Having stepped over barbed wire into the former Czechoslovakia to eat our lunch, we noticed a watchtower at the edge of the forest, next to a farmhouse. The tower does not show up on any of our snap shots.

Life Models
Toni Hafkenscheid
January 8th to February 20th 2010


Opening Reception: Friday, January 8th 7:30 pm to 10:00 pm
Members' Reception: January 8th 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm

Life Models showcases the strange and toy-like images of Toni Hafkenschied. Employing a tilt-shift lens and film that saturates colour, the artist transforms real-life, unedited landscapes into vibrant miniatures that recall the model train sets that fascinated him as a child. The staged quality of the resulting images effectively proposes that human life is a game. At the same time, it demonstrates the power we assert over the natural landscape, and indeed constructing these images makes Hafkenscheid "feel like God, with power over the world."

"The series of prints is derived from my continued exploration of the relationship between the body and soul. I utilize symbols from various forms of dance notation to find expression in this relationship. The printed images resemble traces of hieroglyphic language, waiting to be unearthed, deciphered and communicated."

November 7th to December 5th, 2009

Opening Reception: Friday November 13th 7:30 to 11:00 pm
Members Reception: November 13th 6:30 to 7:30 pm

Reflections and Divergences is an exhibition in two parts—a series of digital prints, and an installation created from recycled etchings. As the title suggests, the works reference something “other,” existing in times and places different from the images and objects on view.

Inside the gallery, Jiménez has built a series of illuminated cylindrical structures, from old prints. As they emit light, they also project dreamlike shadows. Referring to the ideas that informed her past imagery as “imprints” that have stayed with her through the years, the artist expresses her intent to re-use old work as “an act of rebellion against forgetting.” Rather than recalling a specific incident, the new array presents fragments of ideas and thoughts that reflect on a continuous flow into many directions.

The series of prints on the adjacent wall contain images of body parts, insects and objects in ambiguous space/time. Their dream-like aura leads along the labyrinth of memory, a web of images without time or place. As the artist reflects on divergences in her own life, she draws together past and present in this body of work.

Amelia Jiménez is a visual artist, curator and educator who specialized in Printmaking at the Catholic University of Chile, and at Studio Camnitzer in Lucca, Italy. Her work in arts education recently brought printmaking to students and teachers in Iquique Chile. At The Print Studio, she has led two participatory workshop projects in the past year.

Reflections and Divergences is the last of a series of four exhibitions under the title On Surface, curated by Ingrid Mayrhofer.

Bling! is a humourous response to our economic downturn and is a satirical questioning of our consumerist social values. The candy colored gems are a playful irony of our culture of excess and acquisitions of status and luxury. Each piece in the collection is one of a kind, handmade and screen printed on 100% cotton jersey. Bling! is a product of our current economic recession.

Clothing
The mini collection is made from 100% cotton jersey. The gems are screen printed in bright celebratory colors which is in direct contrast to our current economic mood. Asymmetrical hems and lines are repeated throughout the collection which is a reference towards imbalance, and contrasts the full shapes in billowed hem lines, gathered pockets and stuffed gems suggesting excess and fullness. A bauble necklace is screen printed in the front with a bateau neckline, and an open back showcases strung up double-sided gems.

Accessories
The cluster neckpiece is a collage of inflated and deflated gems mounted on a felt backing and suspended by Mokuba ribbons, aluminum chains, resin rings and tagua nut beads. The bouquet brooch is made with a cluster of stuffed gems with a ribboned tassel.
