Micki's Growing Installation

Since securing her installation space, Michaela has spent little time in the IP building.  Instead, she has frequented her studio.  She has repurposed existing pieces, explored artists such as Henri Matisse, Joan Mitchell, Cy Twombly, and Judy Pfaff, and experimented with motifs and styles.

Michaela has produced truly thoughtful work, and it is to protect her process and build suspense that we refrain from saying more.  Kildonan community members - and otherwise interesed readers - may view her exhibition during its May unveiling.  In the meantime, please enjoy the indistinct snapshots and the "cryptic" updates that follow this post.  We hope that we have whet your appetite.

Micki: An Installation Space Emerges

Micki is increasingly exploring the universe and cosmological entities (such as supernovae and black holes) according to her strengths:  visual art and poetry.  Her inquiries have provided her - and the IP community - with profound artistic representations of the unimaginable. Now she wishes to capture the same experience for Kildonan students, faculty, and community members.

Micki quickly realized that she needed a small room, a studio with which she could realize her vision of three-dimensional experiences.  After some initial inquiries, the IP faculty are happy to report that a space has been located!

Kildonan's administration has proven gracious by granting Micki exclusive access to a room that the IP community has affectionately termed "Room 9 3/​4" (a sly reference to Harry Potter).  This area is located next to Ms. Gross's Spanish class (Room 10) on the second floor of the Schoolhouse.  The pictures accompanying this post were taken during a recent exploration of the room by Micki, Ms. Charlap, and Mr. Bisson.
