Dawn is an interdisciplinary artist and writer working in video, radio, art installation, community collaboration, performance and print. She is proud to live and work in Guelph. Recently she produced a radio series called “Two-way: Kids and Seniors Conversations” which aired on CFRU. She’s produced radio stories for many CBC programs including OUTFRONT and The Doc Project. Some of the projects include “IMICO and the Church of the Universe” about a former foundry turned Church in Guelph and “Who is Allen?” profiling a seemingly homeless man who most Guelphites would recognize by image, but know almost nothing about. She was the commissioned lead artist at the Art Gallery of Guelph on a two-year project collaborating with Deaf kids and kids with hearing loss. The project is called A Sense of Wonder. As part of the Guelph Film Festival, Dawn along with Erin MacIndoe Sproule created five films featuring stories of immigrant Canadians and their Objects of Meaning which displayed at the Guelph Museum February 2017.
