It's true! This will be the last post for The Gatekeeper's Lodge, but before committing this blog to online archive, I wanted to post documentation from the culminating project - an exhibition with Eyelevel Gallery in Halifax, called SURVIVAL/SALVATION. This show was a great chance for me to exhibit the projects I worked on while planning the performance events and occupying the Gatekeeper's Lodge in Point Pleasant Park.
