Last month was my solo exhibition, I Come From a Long Line of Machines, at the Ranger Station Art Gallery in Harrison, BC. Below are some behind the scenes photos from the installation day. It’s always a physical task to unravel and layout The Machine: Knitting Ouroboros. I never really know how the work will fit a space, even with the right preparation. But I couldn’t be happier with how it all came together in the end. I’ve also included a few photos from the Opening Reception.

This exhibition was the largest showing of my work to date. I will continue to expand upon this body of work and I hope to continue showing in solo and group exhibitions across the country. Below are photos of all the works in the show, including title, year, medium, and dimensions.
