I finally went to see the new(ish) exhibition, How Soon is Now? at the Vancouver Art Gallery on Tuesday. Of all the amazing B.C. artists, my favourite was Kristi Malakoff whose work can be spotted immediately upon entering the exhibit. A huge psychedelic pink and purple skull made entirely of flower cut outs, smiles from one prominent wall of the gallery.Another of her pieces sits on the floor and is made out of compacted crepe paper carefully shaped into an optical target. I immediately checked out her beautiful website that showcases plenty more of her intricate and vibrant installations. (the Swarm butterflies are sweet) I can't wait to introduce her work to my grade three students in the spring time!! xo
