shift – Mark Walton’s show at The Button Factory

Mark Walton’s great collection of photographs opened at The Button Factory tonight in Waterloo.  I met Mark at Jacqui Murphy’s Art Allies gig at The Communitech Hub a couple of weeks ago.  I really like what he’s doing around disappearing landscapes.  Check it out.

My first visit to The Button Factory on Regina Street, uptown.

In from the bitter cold…

to the warm inside to say hi to Mark and see more of his great work.

Lots of people…

out on a Friday…

engaging…

their community.

Hey, music!  Good idea.

The “Empire – Ira Needles #1” piece got lots of attention.

Spring can’t be far away, right?  Very nice to visit with Mark’s wife, Lisa O’Connell, who is the Artistic Director of Pat the Dog Playwright Centre and her colleague Erica Robinson, Artistic Associate.  I’ve got some reading and another fieldtrip to do now to learn more about Pat the Dog.s

Congratulations on the show opening, Mark, and thanks for the invite.

Hey!  Lucky penny!  An auspicious beginning to the weekend.

Happy making,
