I was thrilled to be interviewed by the CBC news at The Artist Project on the last day of the fair. We talked about how my experience working as a Criminologist in South Africa feeds into my art work today. It’s true that we all have varied roles and experiences that fuel our daily pursuits and passions. The art fair was an extraordinary experience. I communed directly with visitors interested in my art, made meaningful connections, and welcomed many supportive friends and family through the weekend. To end off the exciting weekend with a CBC news spot was a special treat! Thank you to my amazing friends who came out to support me, my family who helped tirelessly with set-up and take-down, a to my friendly and supportive artist neighbours from the show! Thanks to Artist Project and to CBC Toronto - adieu until next year!
