We're having a blast here in Bonavista, meeting some great people, artists and animals and checking out some pretty special places (we'll share more of this stuff later)😁 🐳

If you're in the area stop by 9 Fitzgerald Lane on Thursday the 29th from 3-5 to visit one of @emilydneufeld 's project sites!! Swipe for a little idea😏

Stay tuned into the stories to keep up with our Bonavista adventures, to look back at our stay in New Chelsea and to see what's next 🌱🌿

Hey folks! Say hi to our Artist in Residence, @emi

Hey folks! Say hi to our Artist in Residence, @emilydneufeld! Emily is currently on a cross island trip working on some abandoned houses with her family and assistant @drewpardy . Stay tuned for some peaks into the trip as they take over our insta this week 🐟🌊

A note from Emily:

Hello! Thank you for welcoming me into your community. My work is all about exploring people and places, so meeting new people and exploring new places adds new dimensions to my art practice.

For the past several years, I’ve been making art in homes that are either abandoned or slated for demolition (or both). I’m fascinated by the idea of “place” and the way people’s homes (and the environment that surrounds those homes) have an effect on the people who live there. At the same time, people leave countless impressions on the places they live. This creates a neverending cycle where people change the places they live in, while those places also change them, and so on.

I’m very excited to be here, exploring Newfoundland for the first time, and I’m honoured that many of you are graciously allowing me to make art while I explore.

Emily will be having an "Open House" at one of the @bonavistaliving sites (huge thanks to these guys!!) on Thursday July 29th, 9 Fitzgerald lane, 3-5pm.

The Artist Support Program is back, and we encourage all NL artists, musicians, writers, and performers to take advantage of this fund. If you received this in the past you can apply again!!!

Please share!💞💞

This program compensates artists for many things, including the loss of potential opportunities and experiences. Eligibility for this program covers a broad range of circumstances, and we couldn’t be happier to see this accessible resource for artists!

If you’re thinking about applying but still have questions, the ASP Team is friendly, receptive, and happy to help! See the link in our bio for more information. 👀

Robyn Love’s text for Bruno Vinhas’ rOUGE exhibition “When it Stopped” is now up on our website! See the link in our bio to check it out🫀🪡

“The exhibition title, When It Stopped, alludes to that moment when stitching was finished and his focused attention had nowhere to land – the flood of emotions could no longer be held back. What then? How can he tenderly hold this heart space, this dearest, most secret part of anything – of himself? For Bruno, the answer was to pick up the thread and needle again. And again.”

Robyn Love received her BFA from Cooper Union in New York City and has an extensive record of exhibitions, residencies and public projects at galleries and museums nationally and internationally, including The Bronx Museum of the Arts, Struts Gallery, The Brooklyn Museum, and Northern University in Aberdeen, South Dakota. She created a permanent public art project for the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in a high school in NYC and made a five kilometer-long site-specific crocheted installation in Cheongju, South Korea, for the Craft Biennale there in 2011.
