Born in 1975 in Winnipeg, Craig Love is a visual artist whose primary concerns are painting and text. His paintings aim at being associative springboards or poignant diversions for the everyday problems of being. Of particular interest is the propensity for how painted and written languages find their resting state nestled uncomfortably amongst approximation and abstraction. He was educated at the University of Manitoba and Parsons School of Design at the New School in New York City. He has shown his work in many places across Canada, New York, Scotland, Turkey, and France.
maya rae oppenheimer, phd (she/her) works with, through, from, and around paper: she makes it, writes with it, reads from it and sometimes dreams about it. She is the founder and co-director of OK Stamp Press, a mutual aid art publishing project, and teaches in the Department of Studio Arts at Concordia University. She recently co-founded and launched a community letterpress and bindery workshop in Montreal called Ddense Sun Press. “Typo” is intentional. Come have a visit.
