In 2022 I participated in the Energy Futures Print Portfolio, organized by the Energy Futures Lab and Eveline Kolijn. This project invited Alberta artists and writers to collaborate to create work about the energy transition in Alberta. This is an 11x17 silk screen print in an edition of 25. The ‘We Can Create a Future for Alberta in Which No Person is Left Behind’ is the closing phrase in the article In Lieu of Lightbulbs: A Look at Energy Poverty in Alberta by Yasmin Abraham and Emma Gammans which my writer collaborator Alexis Kienlen and I drew from for the project. I created all of the imagery for this print by carving linoleum blocks, which I then hand printed and scanned. I digitally arranged the imagery, exposed the digital printout to a silkscreen, and produced the final edition as silkscreen prints. The project was published into a book, REIMAGINING FIRE: The Future of Energy.
These are all silkscreen prints made in 2025. I took a silk screen class at SNAP, where I worked out a hand cut collage process for creating the imagery for the prints. I made the Rise and Resist and Another World is Possible prints in this class. I created We Are Capable of Great Transformation while at a Residency at Wachiay Studio in May 2025. The final image shows the in process collage for the We Are Capable of Great Transformation print.
