Looking to start the new year feeling inspired, supported, and creatively recharged?Join us for a lively and thought-provoking Artist Panel discussion featuring the four artists of ‘Loops, Layers, Shapes and Shadows’: David Brown, Heejung Shin, Laurie Skantzos, and Michael Stecky – moderated by painter, writer and Professor of Art, John Kissick.
This conversation will peel back the layers of each artist’s daily practice, inviting audiences to explore how art is made, why artists push beyond the familiar, and what unfolds when creativity becomes an act of risk, renewal, and discovery.
What can people expect?
Expect an engaging dialogue about experimentation, materials, habits, and the often unpredictable path of artistic evolution. Kissick will guide the artists through discussions on routine, intuition, hesitations, breakthroughs, and the deep internal shifts that inform their current bodies of work. Guests will hear firsthand how each artist navigates uncertainty and arrives at transformation through making.
Why should you come?
This is a rare chance to connect directly with four accomplished artists who have stepped boldly outside their established practices and expectations. Whether you’re an artist, a student, a curious maker, or someone who simply loves learning how ideas take form, this panel offers insight, inspiration, and a deeper appreciation for creative process. You’ll leave with a richer understanding not only of the exhibition, but of the broader ways creativity touches daily life.
This is a free event, no registration required.
In the new gallery at the Elora Centre for the Arts, 75 Melville Street.
