Nuit Blanche at Blink Gallery was totally amazing. Thanks to all my fellow Blink Members for making it happen and to everyone who came out for art, tea and conversation. Pictures soon!
The Blink Night Cafe, was a
twist on the classic haunt of insomniacs, playing with tropes
associated with hospitality, place settings and chance conversations
with strangers in the wee hours. Through the collaborative efforts of
the Blink Collective, Header House in Major's Hill park, became
a pop-up, open air venue with a unique ambiance. Hot drinks, jazzy
tunes, mid-night chats and art games with artists on swing shifts
will provided a respite to Nuit Blanchers. The cafe table tops became galleries unto themselves, set with an eclectic variety of tea
and coffee decanters, lamps, interactive napkins and handmade table
cloths. The Blink artists will employed their talents in installation
and assemblage, sculpture, performance, paper-making and drawing.
