Voluntary Self-Identification

The Arty Crowd funding sources require inclusion of members who identify as belonging to priority groups encompassing: Indigenous, ethnocultural communities, rural or remote residents, youth, and Francophones (english and french). Hamilton Arts Council further wants to measure its success in attracting members from all the diverse groups we serve in the Greater Hamilton Area arts community, including those who are LGBTQ2S+, and persons with disabilities. We will use the aggregates of the information collected here to measure our success in making The Arty Crowd an accessible and safe space for all who join. We thank the members of the committee from the Safer Spaces Project who advised us in creating an inclusive self-identification process.

Biography / Artistic Statement / Creative Vision

In 2002 I returned to part of the family farm and began an experiment in organic/natural agriculture. I often refer to it as my "10 acre site specific work".

In fact, this has change my artistic perspective. In observing, learning from, and working with nature; the symbolic seems more true or real then any representational image can be.

The symbolic form I am drawn to is Ukrainian folk art. It is part of my land based heritage. It is an old art form, but not a static one. It allows me to create symbols that are authentic to my experience with this land.
