Artist Talk

Join us on Friday, May 3rd, for a unique gallery tour led by Canadian artist Heran Genene in Art Gate VR. Dive into "Pro-Practice," an immersive installation curated for the Floating Point Gallery.

This innovative experience merges the dynamics of basketball practice with the boundless possibilities of virtual reality.
Engage your senses and your body in a space where movement and presence transform into art. Don't miss the chance to explore this invisible game where you are both the artist and the canvas. Experience proprioception as never before!

Derek Samaha is a self-taught Toronto-based photographer with a decade of experience. He has a passion for shooting cinematic moody scenes with dramatic lighting that share common themes of the human experience or tap into sci-fi/fantasy worlds and lean into some form of tension or suspense. 

Join us for a deep discussion on how art helps us process, reflect, express and heal. Represented artists Michelle Lubin, Jai Mitchell and Antonio Nogueira will share their stories, art practices and take on this powerful way to live our better lives. We will welcome questions and input from the audience as these topics usually ignite interesting conversations. Bring your questions!
