A Multidisciplinary Artist

Politically and socially active, my life is my art, which I share obsessively through the internet. Presently, I am studying Contact Improv dance, somatic approaches to movement and artistic expression, and French. I'm working on performance, drawing, writing and video editing. I cultivate gratitude, and respect for all life. I am a trangender woman and in 2012 changed my legal name. Some of the photos of my work at right link to my pre-2010 CV, under my previous name.

I am a multidisciplinary artist. The connecting theme is an interest in our relation with our environment, particulary our self created environment. I began my career as a sculptor in 1980 with an art happening which included a 50 foot tall wild oat made from Monsanto herbicide cans. In 1982 my site-specific installation including 9 life sized concrete figures was commissioned by the Saskatchewan Government for permanent display in the TC Douglas building in Regina. Since that time I worked as a designer of scenery, lighting, costumes and theatre buildings, and as an exhibits designer, in Canada and Spain. My last work as Theatre Consultant, with Stantec Architecture, was designing and overseeing the renovations to the stage and dressing rooms of the Broadway Theatre in 2002.  In 2011 I designed the environment, lighting and video for the show Buffalos at Persephone Theatre. In 2005, when I was 49 years old, I began training as a dancer and I have performed with various Saskatoon dance groups, with choreographer Kyle Syverson in our company KSAMB Dance, and solo in Saskatoon and Montreal.
