Observer Observed Vernon Public Art Gallery: Vernon, British Columbia Urban Streets – Speaker Series Waterfront Gallery, Ladysmith, British Columbia Exposure - Photography Lecture The Juniper Hotel & Bistro, Banff, Alberta Symposium – New Growth: Dialogues on the Tree York University, Toronto, Ontario The Arbornauts (an artistic collective of three) gave a presentation proposing how public city parks exist in the marginal space between nature (where humans are not) and the city. This definition of the space necessitates our engagement with the park to be within our capacity as a cultured human in contrast to that of the uncultured child or animal climbing trees.
