BIO
Over the past few years, Terence Reeves has been working primarily in cyanotype as a way of maintaining a creative practice through the ongoing disruption that is COVID-19. Terence Reeves picked up photography in the late 90s on 35mm. In the early 2000s, he studied at NBCCD where he learned darkroom process which began a long fascination with alternative processes and analog effects. He studied image arts at Toronto Metropolitan University, and maintains an experimental photography practice selling prints and teaching workshops.

ARTIST STATEMENT
My work is meant to be read on a symbolic level. There are frequently mythological references present. Formal similarities such as those of the tent and the mushroom serve to remind the viewer of our place within broader constructs ie society as shelter. I don't like to use words like god or divinity because I feel they cheapen the accomplishments of human ingenuity. But the concept of the creative spirit deserves celebration. We built the society that we live in, and invented gods to explain it, but the crises we are facing - climate change, violence, injustice, disease - can't be solved by gods. They can only be solved by recognizing that these are political problems and applying our will to reshape our social conditions. Art is the spell I cast on the world.
