Patrick Hughes In the 1980's and 1990's Hughes had many group and solo shows in and around Vancouver in both alternative and commercial galleries. In 1986 he was artist-in-residence at the Western Front and created the 666 O'Clock News, a computer animated video which travelled to festivals around the world. He also worked with several Vancouver dance groups doing sets, costumes, posters and props, most notably with Lola MacLaughlin Dance, EDAM (for whom he created a computer animated set at Expo 86), Karen Jameson and Judith Marcuse. As an active Vancouver-based artist, he was involved in the first Warehouse Show which became the October Show and Artropolis, and became involved with Mail Art through his friendship with Artropolis curator Ed Varney. Hughes' 1994 second solo show at the Sunshine Coast Arts Centre recieved the Gillian Loundes Award, a memorial award created in 1981 and given to artists for long-standing achievement, innovation and recent growth in their field. Hughes has also participated in many charity events, including Benefits for Childrens Hospital Vancouver, Fashion Cares for HIV, Friends of the Caren Old Growth Forest, and This Is Not A One Night Stand for Aids. Since 2000 he has continued to show in numerous exhibitions throughout BC, including the 2007 Mayworks at the OCAC. |

Shelley Little Symmetry: Man-Made & Mother Nature Reception: Friday, September 5th 7:30 pm In the Nemeth Gallery Images: 1 | |
|
Shelley Little | Artist's Statement & Bio: Born in the beautiful city of Vancouver, British Columbia, my memories of childhood were of a hobby farm in south Langley with a large, loving and constant family. From there my teens took me back to Vancouver to experience the next fifteen years of city life. My husband, Brian, and I live out in north Qualicum Beach area and have done so for the couple of years now. When our family was young we lived here for six years. We have a son and a daughter, both recently graduated, and who we feel fortunate to have both stayed with us with our move back to this beautiful Island. Also living with us is our little passel of animals. Our daughter was actually bom here. There Grandmother is retired here in Parksville and says it's the best place on earth I love framing my own work, however, since it is costly and everyone has their own taste, I choose to purchase inexpensive frames and mattes more to show-off my photographs so they would be more appealing, than just being viewed on pages in my portfolios. In this way, I can keep the cost of my photographs down and if someone prefers a different colour or sort of frame, or if they wish to have it professionally framed, they will find this easy to do. |
