If I lived in California I'd probably eat more avocados and I'd probably learn how to drive a car but for sure I would have gone to the Perception of Perception events last weekend! My busy brother was a patricipant. I'm gonna see if I can coax a report out of him.

I feel compelled to mention that Karl Mattson is an environmentalist who does not harm nor kill any animals. Rural living in northern B.C. provides plenty of carcasses for those who want them. A while ago I posted an image of Karl Mattson's excellent Surveyor sculpture at mile zero of the Alaska Highway in Dawson Creek. I actually prefer the dystopic sculptures posted here. In the summer I got to see Peep Show and Dust Bunny for real. The horrifying aspects of the work seem to me like an appropriate response to the enormity of environmental destruction and toxic intrusion that is felt much more immediately by people living in Canada's north than it is by those of us (those of us who don't have asthma, that is) in the middle of the GTA.
