Today's artists aren't just using paint. They are coding, building digital spaces, and navigating algorithms. In a world of pixels, digital literacy is key. #Art #Tech #Digital

Artists today aren’t just painting on canvas—they’re coding, curating digital spaces, and negotiating algorithms. In a world shaped by pixels and platforms, digital literacy isn’t optional—it’s survival.

It's so easy to miss when you're just driving by. Under the railway bridge near Higgins and Main, the walls are alive with stories told through vibrant art. #Winnipeg #Art #Urban
Where Trains Rumble, Walls Talk
It’s easy to miss if you’re just driving by, but under the railway bridge near Higgins and Main, the walls are alive.

Some bridges aren't just for crossing. They're sweeping, confident structures suspended in the air, completely changing a city's skyline and our view of it. #Bridges #Design #City
Provencher
We never grew up with bridges like this—suspended, sweeping, confident in the air.

Under a bridge in Winnipeg, a single goose stands among the shadows and spray paint. It’s a quiet, beautiful moment where urban art and nature meet. #Winnipeg #Art #Nature
The goose under the bridge
It stands where steel forgets it’s steel—among colour bleeding from walls, among echoes not meant for birds.

The ulu is so much more than a knife. Holding it connects you to generations of Inuit history, ingenuity, and deep respect for the land and its animals. #Inuit #Culture #Tradition
From Skin to Stitch Honouring the Seal and the Ulu in Inuit Culture
Ah, the ulu. Just holding it in my hand connects me to generations of Inuit who have come before. This isn't just a knife; it's a piece of our history, our ingenuity, and our deep respect for the animals that sustain us.

There's a quiet magic when morning fog clings to the forest floor. It feels like the world is holding its breath, softening every sharp edge. #Forest #Fog #Nature

The forest holds its breath. Morning fog clings to the undergrowth like a held memory, softening the sharpness of the branches.

Backlit by the sunrise and soaked in dew, a spiderweb looks like strings of code floating in the air. Nature's own perfect, logical design. #Nature #Code #Beauty

Let's talk about data in the arts. Terms like metadata and linked open data can seem confusing, but they're vital for the future of the creative sector. #Data #Arts #Tech
The Artistic and Cultural Value of Structured Data for Northern and Community-Based Arts
In the art sector, terms like "structured data," "metadata," and "linked open data" are often met with confusion—or worse, dismissal. For many in the creative world, these tools can appear alien to the artistic process, too closely aligned with institutional bureaucracy, tech monopolies, or algorithmic systems that often leave artists and communities on the margins.

Even in a frozen landscape, nothing is truly still. Ice holds tension between presence and erosion, with dirt and grains trapped inside as witnesses to change. #Ice #Nature #Change
Edges of Ice - The Arts Incubator
Ice rises like fingers sculpted in a moment of thaw—sharp, delicate, reaching toward the low sun. In this blur of focus, what is foreground and what is memory? A crystallized tension sits between presence and erosion, the dirt and grains trapped inside as witness. Nothing here is still, though everything looks like it might be.

The very oil that heats our homes is part of a cycle that's melting the ground beneath our feet. A stark reminder of the complexities of life in the north. #Climate #Change #Arctic
