🐟️🐟️ The Kawartha Lakes region is defined by its many lakes. People are drawn here to swim, boat, and fish. Angler’s Dream speaks to the connection between community and water. 🐟️🐟️

🐟️🐟️ Although the forms are reminiscent of various fish species, I was less interested in creating exact replicas, and more inspired to capture the brilliance of the fish found in our local lakes. The mottled colours and patterns evoke the complex richness of nature and celebrate the vibrant life that exists beneath the surface of the water. 🐟️🐟️

This sculpture forms part of an ongoing body of work titled Fragile Masculinity, which explores the quiet tenderness present in young boys and the ways in which it is often diminished or suppressed over time. The work seeks to hold space for vulnerability, sensitivity, and emotional openness, inviting reflection on how these qualities are shaped by cultural expectations and lived experience. 🩵

My figurative pieces start from work sessions with a model. A friend of our sculpture group consented to model for us. Kind, wise, tall and very slim, it was a joy to work with him.

Born in Austria, Baumgartner fled to Switzerland during World War II and grew up in both countries. In 1960, she emigrated to Canada with her husband and son, settling in Guelph, Ontario. There, she pursued a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Guelph, studying painting, printmaking, drawing, and sculpture. Baumgartner is actively involved in local art communities in Erin, Guelph, Alton, and Elora.

James Cameron Smith, Darner
2026
mixed media
56 x 30 x 30 inches
🔴 SOLD

Inspired by the Canadensis Darner dragonfly, Smith became immersed in the visual brilliance and functional elegance embodied by these 300-million-year-old creatures. Darners, members of the aeshnid family, are revered throughout Ontario's cottage country for their role as natural predators of mosquitoes and black flies.

Most captivating are Darner's bulbous compound black rhinestone eyes representing her 30,000 lenses. A group of smaller simple eyes called ocelli simulated by glass marbles detect changes in light intensity and aid in flight stabilization. 💚👀🩶👀💙

The FAC welcomes 🌼Chance Shermet🌼 to The Downtown Sculpture Exhibition!

A graduate of OCADU's Industrial Design program, Shermet's work has been exhibited at Artscape Gibraltar Point, DesignTO x OCAD U, J-Spot and Ignite Gallery. He recently received the Emerging Artist Award from the Dan Lawrie International Sculpture Collection.

Mountain No. 1 is a part of a series titled 'Building Mass with a Grain of Sand'. This project explores the realm of resources plotting along a spectrum of tiny or vast, individual and collective, abundance versus scarcity. Connecting these diverse ideas of resources, whether natural materials from the earth or the labour and skill of people, there are references to measuring, extracting, industry, wealth, and greed.
