In this series, black and white vintage photographs sourced from the City of Toronto Archives are fused together with vibrant, organic-like brush strokes. These images celebrate an important chapter in Toronto's history, and act as a reminder that the urban enviroment is an ever-evolving entity. While some of these theatres are no longer in existence, the photographs encapsulate a moment in time, the events that took place here, and the pulsating energy that contributed to our identity as a city. These photographs exemplify a reverence for the past, for the artistry that went into creating these buildings, and for the art that came forth through them - no longer in their physcial form, but contributing to what makes the city of Toronto so special.
