HALIFAX<\/span><\/strong><\/span> – <\/span><\/span>“In one of my first posts, I mentioned the Gatekeeper’s Lodge was a fine example of Victorian-Gothic architecture – she’s a beauty, but not alone in the city of Halifax. \u00a0 This city\u00a0holds gorgeous buildings that echo Victorian-Gothic (or Gothic Revival) style! \u00a0Wandering along\u00a0Barrington Street, you may\u00a0notice the defining features of Gothic Revival style; arched windows, ornate moldings and decorative trims, strong peaks, roof dormers and – low and behold… <\/span><\/span><\/em>TRACERY abounds!<\/span><\/span><\/em> What is <\/span><\/span><\/em>tracery,<\/span><\/span><\/em> you ask? \u00a0(at least I hope you do, because I had to). \u00a0Tracery is ornamental stone pattern-work, typically found in the upper part of a Gothic window. \u00a0But I digress… \u00a0\u00a0The other Victorian-Gothic of particular interest this week is <\/span><\/span><\/em>the Khyber Building<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/em>, where tracery seems to be almost as plentiful above the windows as at the Lodge” <\/span><\/span><\/em>(Aim\u00e9e\u00a0Brown, <\/span><\/span>Gatekeeper’s Lodge<\/span><\/span><\/a>).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

With an aim to engage and connect <\/span><\/span>the Gatekeeper’s Lodge<\/span><\/span> at Point Pleasant Park and the Khyber Institute, HRM Open Projects Initiative artist-in-residence\u00a0, Aim\u00e9e\u00a0Brown will be performing an illuminated walk in Halifax on Sunday evening, February 13th, as a part of a performance series organized through the <\/span>Khyber Institute for Contemporary Ar<\/span><\/a>t. The walk will begin at the Gatekeeper\u2019s Lodge in Point Pleasant Park\u00a0at 7:00 pm and will progress through the city along Barrington Street to the Khyber.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Aim\u00e9e\u00a0will be using contemporary survival strategies (a theme evident in her practice), during the performance walk to acknowledge the buildings’ enduring presence and role as founding structures in Halifax\u2019s Gothic Revival period. The public is invited to either monitor the artists progress remotely – by visiting the third floor turret of the Khyber on Sunday evening between 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm – or the artist invites the public to join her in front of the Gatekeeper’s Lodge at 7:00 pm, sharp, to walk together and to illuminate the city collectively.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Born and raised in Western Canada, Aim\u00e9e completed her undergraduate degree in Fine Arts with Honours at\u00a0the University of Alberta, in 2003. After moving to Halifax in 2005, she obtained her Masters in Fine and Media\u00a0Arts at NSCAD University in 2007, and remains here as an artist and educator. Aim\u00e9e\u2019s artistic practice often employs archives and research, seeking to root sculpture, performance, and printmaking within historical and contemporary narratives. \u00a0Aim\u00e9e often\u00a0explores how printed matter has influenced her studio work and career as an archives and collections coordinator with NSCAD University. A recent recipient of several awards and grants, notably the Joseph Beuys Scholarship for Artist Merit, a Nova Scotia Tourism, Culture and Heritage grant, Aim\u00e9e most recently received a Canada Council for the Arts Production Grant. \u00a0Aim\u00e9e has exhibited her work nationally and internationally, with recent group shows in California and British Columbia.<\/span><\/p>\n
