The Northern Artist Gallery is thrilled to announce that the exhibit for the month of May will be artist Kelly Barbosa. The exhibit will showcase her love for oceanic creatures and can be viewed at Artists on Elgin from May 1-31. The public is invited to attend the opening reception on Saturday May 11th from 1pm to 4pm to meet the artist. Kelly Barbosa has always felt a love for the ocean and the creatures that inhabit it. Kelly’s work is a unique blend of painting and relief sculpture as she carves creatures out of MDF (multi-density fibreboard) and finishes them with acrylic paint. Kelly wants to bring a splash of the ocean to the inland of Northern Ontario using vivid hues and bold stylization. In this display of oceanic creatures, you will experience divergent species represented with vibrant hues, bold lines and distinct texture. Come and explore the vast depths.

Kim McKibbon is an award winning, mixed media artist whose work has been constantly evolving. Her paintings in acrylic are infused with vibrant colours, a free flowing style and a love for the immediacy of first impressions. Her collages are intricate and layered requiring patience, skillfulness and proficiency with this challenging medium. Kim's vibrant art fills the walls of her Artworks Studio in downtown Sudbury, which she opens for the many Art Crawls held throughout the year. Born and raised in Sudbury, she has a deep connection and feeling for the northern landscape. Her artwork reflects this shared relationship with places that evoke feelings, memories and meaning. Her love of travel has given Kim another avenue for inspiration, which she loves to share and take others along on the journey. She is proud to be a working artist, always wanting to push her own limits and challenge expectations. At heart she is very much an experimenter... combining deliberate intention with free flowing intuition. Both of these aspects can be found in her paintings and in her collaged pieces. Throughout the years, this prolific artist has been involved in many art shows... 14 solo shows, about 50 large and small group shows as well as many juried exhibitions. Her work has been featured many times in the Sudbury Star, Northern Life and even a CBC radio interview about her solo collage exhibit "Paper Palette". In 2017 she was invited by the Art Gallery of Sudbury to be the featured, artist at the Sudbury Theatre Centre. Her work is collected and enjoyed by many enthusiasts. At the present time Kim is sharing more of her photography and continues to work on her Northern Landscape series. On a personal note, she is the proud mom to four wonderful human beings, three sons and...

À quoi ressemble votre ville / communauté / quotidien du point de vue de l'étranger ? Est-ce plus beau, plus étrange, ou tout simplement différent ? Pour sa première résidence artistique en Ontario, l'artiste d'origine philippine Patrick Cruz se livre à une performance de touriste cueillant au fil du hasard des informations sur l'histoire, la mémoire culturelle et l'esthétique visuelle de sa communauté d'accueil, Sudbury. Lèvres de mille neuf cent quatre-vingt-seize enseignants, une installation multimédia qui s'apparente à de la docufiction, est à voir du 31 mai au 28 juin, à la Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario. plus d'infos sur notre site > www.gn-o.org _________________________________________________________________ What does your city / community / day-to-day life looks like from the outsider's point of view ? Nicer ? Stranger ? Any different ? For his first artist residency in Ontario, Filipino artist Patrick Cruz embarks on a quest to perform as a critical tourist loosely researching the history, cultural memory and visual aesthetics of his host community, Sudbury. Lips of one thousand nine hundred ninety six teachers, a multimedia installation resembling a docufiction, is shown from May 31 to June 28 at the Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario. additional info on our website > www.gn-o.org/en/

This year, we will feature sculptor Antonella Rocca. David Wiewel has joined us for every art crawl since we opened, but this year he's busy working on opening his new café, Café Obscura Sudbury! We wish him the very best on his new venture and will miss him taking in-house portraits! ARTIST STATEMENT-Antonella Rocca Antonella Rocca was born in 1984, in Lamezia Terme (Province of Catanzaro – Italian Region of Calabria – South Italy). Currently she lives and works in Sudbury (ON) Canada. In 2002 she obtained a Diploma at Liceo Artistico Statale in Catanzaro and in 2015 was awarded with a Masters’ Degree with specialization in Decoration from “Accademia di Belle Arti” (Art School) of Catanzaro with a final mark of 110 summa cum laude. In 2018, she successfully completed the “General Arts and Science - English for Academic Purpose Program” at Cambrian College in Sudbury-ON.

Between 2014 and 2018 she worked for “MAON” (Museum which collects artworks from Calabrian artists of 19th and 20th centuries) in Cosenza – South Italy. She is promoter of some great Italian and foreign artists like Alberto Burri, Aurelio Amendola, Mario Cresci, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalì, Jannis Kounellis, Gastone Biggi and Mimmo Rotella.
