Taking Out, a large relief and digital print from 2012 made during my residency at the University of Alberta, hangs in a home designed by architect Johan Carlsson in Copenhagen, Denmark, and featured in RUM International Edition (Oct 2022). Carlsson is an architect, designer and founder of the award-winning JAC Studios, whose projects across both the public and private spheres seek to challenge the way we view interior and exhibition design.














Showing support for Ukraine, John Wynne and Denise Hawrysio latest art installation, “and quiet that splinters the winter”, was exhibited at At Home Gallery – a former synagogue built by the Slovak Jewish community in the early 20th century – in Samorin, Slovakia in the fall of 2023.

The devastating effects of this war on nature are catastrophic and mirror the simultaneous human tragedies and physical destruction wrought by the pointless aggression. As Yevheniia Zasiadko from Ecoaction, a Ukrainian environmental group says, “War affects our nature just as badly as our people and our infrastructure. However, this damage remains unseen and mostly ignored, for the environment is the silent victim.”

Using sound and projected images, the artists use the forest as both a literal and metaphorical representation of the effects of war, while a set of Hawrysio’s collages brings the focus more specifically on the current conflict.
