Thesis Exhibition of Interdisciplinary Master's Student Lisa Binnie

Please join IAMD MFA Candidate Lisa Binnie for her sensory explorations of the Port Lands

Please join the IAMD Program and the Graduate Studies Department in celebrating the IAMD Thesis Exhibition of MFA Candidate Lisa Binnie.

The Port Lands are dramatic and otherworldly, shaped by the dynamic forces of industry, recreation and nature. The Walk leads to five vantage points from which you will see these forces in action.

Lisa Binnie is leading four public walks in September. You can also tour it yourself guided by the map on the website, and onsite signs and flags.

The artist led walks are:
Sep 2nd, 11 am
Sep 6th, 11am
Sep 8th, 11am
Sep 14th, 10am

We meet at the southeast corner of the Cherry Street bridge, just north of Unwin Avenue and Cherry Beach. The Walk's duration is two hours including the return trip.

These exhibitions explore a wide variety of interdisciplinary subject matter and media including, drawing & painting, sound art, video, performance, health design, photography, furniture design, sculpture and installation.

We meet at the southeast corner of the Cherry Street bridge, just north of Unwin Avenue and Cherry Beach.
