Under Pressure (left middle) and Turbulence (top centre) | Turbulence is made up of 5 custom wood panels made to display the image at an angle since it was being mounted on the mezzanine balcony but viewed from below. Designing the panels so they could break down but be assembled to form a single unit and considering how to hang them securely from the balcony (can't have these falling on people's heads!) were the main details that took some thought and recruiting the expertise of the Phil, who was in charge of fabricating the panels. I didn't even know if I would have help installing them but thankfully I did!

Day Four of installing the 'Chains Unlinked' exhibition was the final day of drawing for the mural, lots of clean up, and getting structures in place for the sculpture installation to come. This time-lapse bleeds into Day Five a little toward the end when you see a preview of some of the video installation process. Should be fun to see the video put together into one at some point. The 'Chains Unlinked' exhibition is on at the Art Gallery of Mississauga through September 13, 2015. If you visit on Saturday July 25 you can catch my artist talk at 1pm.

Day 2: Wall Drawing for 'Chains Unlinked' Exhibition (updated) 'Chains Unlinked' Installation Day One Complete! 'Boxed In #21' didn't start with much, just the linear diagram you see in the top photo, but that was crucial when working this large. When you're drawing you can't see very much, you're too close, so it's important to get the big shapes mapped out. The second photo above shows where the drawing stood at the end of Day 2 of my install. The time-lapse video below, which I forgot to start shooting right at the start of my day, shows a lot of my drawing process from that day. It's a lot of fun watching a time-lapse, I hope you enjoy this one. I have more photos from subsequent days which I will turn into videos as well and post here. Please take a moment to comment below, or on my Facebook page or on Twitter. I always appreciate hearing from you!

Kim-Lee KhoAs a visual artist I like nothing more than getting up to my elbows in paint or little plastic toys, or wading in at the deep end in pursuit of an idea. When I am not teaching others in a similar vein, you can find me researching, writing and noodling around in my studio, seeing where my latest lines of inquiry lead me. Archives
