PLATFORM centre for photographic + digital arts is pleased to announce artist talks in conjunction with the exhibition THE TIME TRAVELLERS. Join us on Saturday 14 May at 2PM to hear from artists Sarah Crawley (MB) and Mandy Malazdrewich (MB) as they discuss their work and ideas.

 
ABOUT THE ARTISTS
Sarah Crawley is a visual artist who lives and works in Winnipeg. In her art practice she works with ideas generated from lived experience using different photographic technologies and materials. She is currently interested in the impact that place has on identity and has been using pinhole photography, with its long, slow exposures to explore this complicated relationship. Landscape, climate, seasonal changes and quality of light as well as built environment and cultural history together shape her investigations as they all subconsciously play a role in the development of identity. Sarah Crawley has exhibited across Canada in solo and group shows as well as internationally and is recipient of many grants and awards.

Mandy Malazdrewich is a visual artist, working predominantly in photography. She is also an archivist with a particular interest in photographic records. Though firmly rooted in contemporary photographic practice, her work often engages with historical images and also involves the use and consideration of historical photographic approaches and processes.
