Organisateur

Cambridge Centre for the Arts/ Heather Kocsis

Heather Kocsis holds an Honourary Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Queen’s University in Kingston, ON, Canada. For more than two decades Kocsis has explored, studied, and travelled to discover her own artistic voice. Ms. Kocsis devoted herself to creating her own individualistic style. Perfecting her process since 1999, she calls her wall-sculptures: "wood assemblages”. She now has a respected international following of private collectors, architects, structural engineers, designers, and lovers of fine art. In 2011 she began exhibiting her work internationally. She continues to nurture her client relationships with an understanding and appreciation from her clientele she is one of a kind.

Capturing our time-kept places of where we live, work, and shelter, Heather creates evocative dimensional wall-sculptures using layers of wood, helping people connect to their joy by reminding them of their own sense of home.

"With beautiful irony, the pandemic initiated collaborations with artists from around the world; Blending artistic mastery of sculpture, theatrical performance and video special effects. Video artist Gary Kirkham and I gratefully received a Digital Originals Grant from The Canada Council of the Arts to explore and create a new way of making art that can be distributed digitally. This lead to a more expansive project, funded by the Region of Waterloo Arts Fund and The Good Family Foundation. This exhibition is the culmination of this project."
