My photography gives a voice to the spirit of the salmon that used to spawn in False Creek’s streams, but whose natural habitat has disappeared with the paving of the streams and rivers and pollution of the water in False Creek.

Where We Start From
“What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from”
- T. S. Elliot
September 3rd – 27th, 2009
Opening Reception, September 3rd 2009, 5:00 – 8:00 p.m
September is filled with the promise of renaissance. This month provides the perfect backdrop to consider personal, social, environmental and artistic beginnings. A beginning may be as small as the start of a new school year, as influential as the development of a new technology, as common placed as a change in season, as promising as the birth of a child and as monumental as the inauguration of a new political leader.
On The Rise Artist Collective presents Where We Start From, a multi-disciplinary exploration through visual arts of the possibilities inherent in each new beginning. Within the cycle of beginnings and endings, each intersection between old and new offers an opportunity to reflect on the resulting transformation.
Local artists pay tribute to the cyclical nature of new beginnings through integration of past and present. These artists share their vision of starting a new through painting, photography, drawing, and sculpture.
