ELIZABETH KERR
‘Eclectic Close-Ups’
Photography
Describe this exhibit. What was your creative stimulus for this particular series?
This exhibit is a collection of close-ups from nature and man-made subjects. I find it very thought-provoking to look at a subject in close proximity because it opens up a whole new way of observing and thinking about it.
What’s your background? How long have you been doing art?
My background is that I am a Speech Pathologist by profession. In my capacity as a Speech Pathologist, I have spent some time travelling to do my work in a number of countries. During these travels, over the last thirty years I was drawn to photography. (read more)

‘Mad Potters’ Tea Party‘
CLAYTIVITY in Wonderland – Ceramics
Describe this exhibit. What was your creative stimulation for this particular series?
As the owner of ‘CLAYTIVITY’, I visit schools, community groups, do workshops, parties, private classes, and fire pottery for others in Sḵwx̱wú7mesh and the Sea-to-Sky. I want to include the kind of projects that students can make – children and adults, of all levels of experience.
What kind of artist do you consider yourself? Why?
I am a ‘back to front’ artist – I started working with clay when I signed up for a clay instructor job in Calgary. A 5-minute practice in my boss’ studio prepared me for throwing cups in front of my first elementary school class. They were badly centred, fat walled and undersized but to my appreciative audience that didn’t matter. (read more)
