John Janzen at Coast Collective Gallery

| 18 on race day by John Janzen |
övertide
September 14 to October 2
John Janzen’s recent oil paintings show waves as an emotional response to man’s treatment of the ocean, and boats as fragile primitive liaisons between the two. Janzen got serious about art studies in 2001, first at University of Alberta, and later in Italy where he studied and painted daily. In Victoria, Janzen has been inspired by the power and movement of the ocean, how boats are weathered by it and how everything is eventually destroyed by its incredible power. Reception with music by Caelen La Rocque on Friday, Sept 16, 7-9pm

Dancing in the Sun |
For me, an art practice is a quiet, personal time in my studio when colour, shape, line, texture and all the rest come together to produce something new. It is like a focused meditation with an outcome. Fabulous! I get calm and I get a product!
Does it always go well ? No, but the challenge of making it work is intriguing. Which convination of the skills, the paint, the equipment will create the mood or balance I judge 'just right'. It is a bit like baby bear's porridge.
I love the psychical aspect of paint. The colour, the squishiness, the different ways the paint moves across the canvas depending on the tool, I am intent and curious about all of it. The magic that happens is fascinating and always new.

Mowry Baden - Toroidal Yodel - Deluge Contemporary Art

Toroidal Yodel
Mowry Baden
Opening Friday, September 9, 7pm
Deluge Contemporary Art is proud to present its second exhibition by renowned sculptor Mowry Baden. Toroidal Yodel is an extension of the artist’s ongoing interest in haptic sculpture. “I am not interested in haptic sculptures that are merely extensions of visual scenarios,” Baden has stated, “and I don’t want to burden the viewer with any exotic conditions. I want the viewer to experience the sculpture as directly as possible.” Toroidal Yodel is a work in which Baden has employed vortices – torus-like (or donut-shaped) slugs of air that swirl around a trans-spacial axis – to hurl palpable but invisible donuts of air at people interacting with it. Because the number, direction and velocity of these air slugs can be controlled via computer, the technology has provided the artist vast opportunities for experimentation. Describing each moving torus as a “micro event,” Baden has imagined a “program of micro events as long as a sonata
