Different than Usual
West End Community Centre

JUNE 14, 2014
10am – 12pm
West End Community Centre | 870 Denman Street 
FREE | No registration required

Using conventional drawing tools and your physical being, join artist Ghazel Abassalian to create a large-scale drawing in the lobby of the West End Community Centre. Approach drawing in a different way than you thought possible—draw with your head, blindfolded using both hands or directed by your friend and even use the Matisse approach of a pencil on a long stick!

Participants of all ages and experience are welcome.

Ghazel Abassalian was born in Tehran, raised in the Netherlands where she completed her BFA at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy with a major in video art. Currently living and working in Vancouver, she has a studio at the Gam gallery. Ghazel has exhibited her work in France, England, Germany and the Netherlands. The artistic focus in her video works has been mainly on the inner conflict experienced as a young artist, evoking two opposing responses of “GENIUS” and “failure” in which there is no middle ground, only constant conflict.
