Audie Murray: To Make Smoke at the Mackenzie Art Gallery, Regina, SK
Solo Exhibition Feb 22 - Sept 8, 2024The collision of red phosphorus on the tip of the matchstick against the powdered glass surface of the matchbox unfolds as an intense and rapid encounter, setting off a cascading combustion reaction.

What remains in the aftermath is a veil of smoke, a spectral residue that bears witness, validates, and narrates the event that just took place.

I Hate to Admit it, But I Loved the Armory Show
Hyperallergic 8 September 2023"Ontario-based Inuk artist Couzyn Van Heuvelen exhibited some of his foil balloon pieces, inspired by the Inuit seal-skin floats used to hunt marine animals. These works are typically filled with helium, but the fair prohibited it, worried that the artworks would drift up into the convention center’s impossibly high ceilings, thousands of dollars lost forever. 'They told us: ‘Pop them or get out,' said Fazakas Gallery owner LaTiesha Fazakas. 'So we blew them up ourselves using straws.'"
