rfmcdonaldOn Nuit Rose earlier this month, I stopped by West Queen West's Paul Petro Contemporary Art where I ended up taking some small part in Zachari Logan's durational drawing performance 49 Flowers.
These were the floral arrangements.
I ended up selecting the below flower, a rose--I think--dense with convolutions, and I sat for the sketching just after midnight. The process of Logan's sketching on mylar was impressive to watch.
Below is the drawing, #40 in the series, that was the result.
On June 25th 2016, Zachari Logan completed a durational drawing performance, in conjunction with NUIT ROSE, Toronto's Queer Arts Festival and his exhibition Forgotten Selves at PAUL PETRO CONTEMPORARY ART. Members of the public were invited to select a cut flower from a large floral arrangement and sit with the artist for a fifteen-minute portrait-drawing session. Logan drew the flower as a portrait of the bearer. Logan's goal to produce forty-nine drawings to commemorate the lives of those lost in the recent Orlando tragedy was realized by drawing continually from noon on the 25th of June to 2:30am June 26th, 2016.
