Jamie Bergin is a valued member of the Digital Media team. She specializes in teaching 3D design to beginners.

“I am able to explain difficult things to people in a way they can understand. Digital 3D design can be a bit overwhelming when you are not used to computers. I make sure everyone knows the basics. My favourite part is the lightbulb moments, when see a student get to a new level of understanding.”

Beautiful and impactful work from Advanced Studio Practice student Sarah Hill of Saraphina Designs:

"After tree planting last summer I knew I had to find a way to connect my passion for the earth to my metal arts practice. I began exploring copper fold forms that transformed into leaf-like, feathery creatures, this line is titled Copper Leaves. As fun as they were to create, I knew I needed to tackle a more challenging design, I am a builder. My aim was to create a line that was high quality, accessible for customers and cohesive with my Copper Leaves. This new line is titled Natural Spaces and is inspired from my recent times in nature and also by the negative space I created within the design itself. I brought Copper Leaves and Natural Spaces to Craft East Buyers Expo in February 2020 for my first wholesale experience. Recently, I opened dialogue with a New Brunswick based reforestation organization so I can begin redirecting a percentage of my profits to a cause I really believe in. I want my jewellery to inspire, inform and innovate change that begins with my customers." ... See MoreSee Less

Exhibitions | Owens Art Gallery

3 weeks ago

Instructor Janice Wright Cheney's work is featured in the Fairy Tales exhibition at Owens Art Gallery in Sackville, NB. It sounds positively mesmerizing:
"This group exhibition explores the wondrous in nature by reconsidering the role of animals in storytelling. These works present fantastical narratives in which animals preside over strange episodes: tales are rewritten or unwritten, travellers embark on uncertain journeys, danger lurks deep in the forest, a witch appears from nowhere, birds and beasts are spellbound, clothing is enchanted, and a shoe materializes, as if magically spun from gold."
