Le homecoming

galerie du Nouvel-Ontario 174 Elgin Street, Sudbury, Ontario, Canada

LE HOMECOMING JENNA DAWN MACLELLAN This series of textile works by jenna dawn maclellan is inspired by the artist’s return to Northern Ontario’s rural regions after having spent several years in Montreal. Confronted with the challenges posed by this vast expanse of boreal forest, she formulates a variety of playful strategies to defend herself against nature. With her snowmobile, bear skin rug, and anti-mosquito suit – all hand-knit – jenna dawn maclellan pays homage to the North of her childhood. The objects knit by maclellan are as familiar as they are fantastic. Being transposed into textile gives an air of storied marvelousness to their otherwise ordinary nature. This is how objects found in so many Northern Ontario sheds and garages are transformed into genuine icons of northernness. Exhibition March 17 to May 5, 2017 Opening Friday March 17 at 5 PM

The Note – Sudbury Book Signing

Chapters 1425 Kingsway, Sudbury, Ontario, Canada

Final leg of, The Note, book tour to end back home in Sudbury, Deb and I are very excited to see old friends and family. Be sure to join us at Ferrigan’s Pub in Garson for drinks after the event !! The Note is a bestselling novel about a child musical prodigy who is seized by schizophrenia and ends up in rags busking on the streets of Amsterdam. His talent is such that listeners have an ethereal experience when he plays and he gains a following of hippies, gypsies, and buskers, all those that live on the margins of society. Meanwhile, his trophy wife stepmother wants him dead for his inheritance. The Note is a tense suspense story that spans three continents, that asks the question, where does sanity end and genus begin, and how are some extraordinary people able to tap into well knowledge that eludes the rest of us. www.chriscromwellbooks.com Hope to see you all there!
