exhibitions and projects
Shannon Anderson and Jay Wilson met while working as jury members for the Temporary Contemporary commission project at Sheridan College. We realized that our art interests and curatorial ideas shared common ground. Our curatorial process evolves through and is shaped by sharing artists of interest, studio visits, road trips and reading.

jay wilson
Jay has an Honours degree in Wildlife Biology and Statistics from the University of Guelph, a diploma from the Ontario College of Art and Design and an MFA from York University. He taught full-time in the Art and Art History program, a joint program between the University of Toronto Mississauga and Sheridan College until his recent retirement. As an artist, Wilson has shown both locally and internationally, and has received numerous creation, research and exhibition assistance grants. His design and art practices are a mix of conceptual considerations and play, often full of segues, spontaneity and contradiction.
