September 3 – November 8, 2013
Diane Borsato is a Toronto-based artist working in social practice, performance, intervention, video, installation and photography. Recently she has worked closely with groups of performers, volunteers and amateur naturalists in projects that explore social, mobile and multi-sensory ways of knowing. As artist-in-residence, she researched the AGO collection and worked in response to objects, resources and relationships developed in the museum.
For Scotiabank Nuit Blanche on October 5, 2013, Borsato gathered 100 regional beekeepers in a massive collective meditation in Walker Court entitled Your Temper, My Weather. The beekeepers silently meditated on notions of “good weather” for the bees and for all of us, attempting to transform environmental conditions with their minds. Please click here for more info.
