May 14 @1-2PM
Lobby – Sudbury Theatre Centre
, 170 Shaughnessy St, Greater Sudbury, ON P3E 3E7

We are delighted to bring back an Audience Favourite from our 10th anniversary PlaySmelter. Northern ON visual artist Suzanne McCrae will be on-site working an interactive sculpture. Poetry Puppy (in process above) not resides at Art Gallery of Sudbury.

From the artist:  My images, words and poetry will be collaged into the creation of a papier mâché animal to represent this creature my ongoing exploration of the human-animal relationship. The structure of the sculpture will be on-site through the Festival May 11-14. I will be collaging it at the Festival and providing an interactive audience moment by inviting the audience to create poetry which will then be glued to become part of the sculpture.

SUZANNE MCCRAE: I am a Northern Ontario visual artist primarily working in papier mâché sculpture, paint media and some poetry. My sculptures are life-like and life-size and the main focus of my work is animals, both domestic and wild and their relationship to humans. I am currently concentrating on the relationship between man and dog and have been doing it during the COVID-19 pandemic.
