So, that trip I mentioned in my last post... well, it was to Venice (as anyone who has been
following me on instagram would know). My friend Shary Boyle is representing Canada at this year's Biennale,
and I was invited to help with the installation for a couple of weeks.
My best friend (and coe&waito partner) Alissa is Shary's
production assistant for the project, so basically it was a chance to
hang out with a couple of my favourite people in one of the most unique
and beautiful cities in the world. Pretty sweet. Here are a bunch of my favourite pics that some of you will have already seen on instagram or facebook.
If you don't already follow me on instagram, the rest of my trip photos
can be seen here.
As far as the Biennale pavilion goes, it's top secret until it opens
officially at the end of the month, but I'll be sure to post details
about Shary's masterpiece then. I'm so honoured to have been involved in a small way.

All the wisteria was blooming. It was everywhere, and so beautiful!

The Paradiso cafe near the entrance to the Biennale grounds. Perfect spot for after work spritzes.
