  • August 2017 (Bonavista Biennale Artist Spotlight: Will Gill
    August 2017 #028 “I consider the green chair work a kind of collaboration with the ocean in that I have done my part and the surroundings – the ocean and wind – are left to do theirs.“ - Will Gill Bonavista Biennale Artist Spotlights Facilitated by Katie Butler Major & Jane Walker Will Gill Will Gill’s practice spans photography, painting, sculpture and live-action work. His Biennale work, The Green Chair, is a site-specific outdoor steel sculpture set at the ocean’s edge, allowing the free and ever-changing play of light, wind and water over and through the chair. It replicates an archetypal Newfoundland wooden chair found in many rural kitchens. Because kitchens are where families and friends gather, this chair calls up memories of the comfort and pleasure of daily activities and “times”. But it also can evoke thoughts of people sitting by the window in anxious vigil, awaiting overdue sailors and fishermen. Paintings from Gill’s on-going Fires in the Desert work at the Factory Building in Port Union draw from his recent experience of two “ice deserts” during a 2014 residency aboard a three-masted barquentine out of Svalbard, Norway and an earlier voyage through the Canadian Arctic. The canvases with their soft pink organic forms play off Doug Guildford’s large crocheted sculptural works, some of them pink, installed in the Factory’s second floor. Photo by Mark Gray What role does site-specificity play in your practice and in this work in particular? For some time now I have been making work - a kind of live action work - in the environment that relies on the unpredictable elements of our surroundings to add context and meaning to the work.

  • ART=WORK at Eastern Edge Gallery
    Hello Minister French, Thank you for receiving this very important package from the Newfoundland and Labrador arts community. On Tuesday April 9th we held an important community meeting entitled ART=WORK at Eastern Edge Gallery. There we gathered 90+ amazing voices from our sector which included artists from all fields, arts workers from many organizations, curators, administrators, managers, volunteers, advocates, business leaders, and residents. We were brought together through our shared disappointment of the recent provincial cuts to our sector. We see this document as a beginning of a new conversation with you to make clear the impact of provincial investment in the arts which is proven time and time again to be a good and solid investment. When you invest in the arts, every dollar runs into 22 (according to source). But beyond this economic investment, you also invest in our people’s well-being, our history. Your investment assists the presentation of our stories on the world stage reflecting our distinct local culture in a time of increased globalization and pressure. All this, while providing a high quality of life for our citizens here at home. For what is a community without its culture? These cuts come at a time when new possibilities for growth have appeared. We believe that these cuts have depressed opportunities for growth while also making our sector highly unstable. We cannot do more with less. We need to be a part of the consultation process. As you may or may not be aware, many of those let go in our sector were one-of a kind individuals in the province with highly specific knowledge that cannot be easily replaced by frontline staff.
