Being in the Arctic while conducting visual research transformed who I was\/am as an artist. The Arctic alters you to the core, as a person, as an artist! This summer, I had the opportunity to float, once again, on these waters after 7 years, and once again, with the support of <strong>artsnb<\/strong> and the Sheila Hugh&nbsp;Mackay Foundation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The main question that kept arising from other artists while on the ship was \u201cwhy did you come back?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After my first solstice expedition in 2016, when I was back in Moncton, I had this penetrating feeling that I had left a part of me on\/in Svalbard. This is the reason I reapplied for this exceptional residency: to retake this part of me that I had left behind, there in the skies, the waves, the shores, the land of this part of the Arctic. The ruggedness and softness of the terrain were intertwined and floating \u2026in waiting \u2026not to be touched. I needed to go back. I needed to find what I had left in waiting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For my first expedition in 2016, I had visually rendered with photographic images the wide spaces of Spitzbergen into places, and worked within their states of in-betweens. These areas were formed by the guards when establishing a triangle (or a square) on each landing, where we, the artists, would all individually be engaging in a creative act in \u201cour place\u201d. These where ephemeral in-betweens that would disappear as quickly as they were formed as we left back to Antigua, but they all continued living within our artworks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-01-3-1024x682.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14790\" style=\"object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-01-3-1024x682.png 1024w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-01-3-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-01-3-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-01-3-1536x1024.png 1536w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-01-3-2048x1365.png 2048w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-01-3-400x267.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\"><em>Between a vessel and a circle : landing 03<\/em>, 2016<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For the June 2023 expedition, my plan was to create a visual comparison in the style of <em>survey photographers<\/em> of \u201cwhat was\u201d and \u201cwhat is\u201d. I therefore brought with me fifty silver gelatin prints from my 2016 collection to compare, once on landings, the changes (or not) of this \u201cpristine\u201d land. These were developed but not fixed as the plan was to re-expose them once in the Arctic under the 24h daylight and fix them once back home. However, we sailed to only one of the 2016 landings as the packed ice was too close to the northern shores where we had spent most of your expedition 7 years prior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"764\" src=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-02-1024x764.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-02-1024x764.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-02-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-02-768x573.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-02-1536x1146.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-02.jpg 1644w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\">Row 01 \u2013 2023 expedition<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\">Row 02 \u2013 silver gelatine 2016 expedition images (developed but not fixed) exposed to the elements of the Arctic (rain, sleet, snow and daylight) and fixed upon return to Moncton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\">Row 03 \u20132016 images (developed and fixed) during the 2023 expedition at Tiwayrebukta<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>After that one landing, I was delighted and lost!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delighted because I could at least visually compare one specific area like I had planned.

As only a small number of people get to see, breathe, and feel the changes in the Arctic, the great value is to generate a conversation about the extensive impacts these changes have on all of us, no matter where we live, using art as a platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"267\" src=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-03-1024x267.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14743\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-03-1024x267.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-03-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-03-768x200.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-03-1536x400.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-03-2048x533.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\">[work in progress], Arctic Circle 2023, June 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>All of my images were therefore re-exposed by the Arctic daylight in different parts of the southern and eastern coasts of Spitzbergen with the subtle elements that are being altered by our selfish behaviors: the fauna, the warming waters, the melting glaciers, the weather changes, the changing ice floes, etc. With this work, I hope to generate the knowledge that our behavior elsewhere in the world, can have great impact on the smallest fundamental elements found in the Arctic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"387\" src=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-04-1024x387.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14745\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-04-1024x387.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-04-300x113.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-04-768x290.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-04-1536x580.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/FORGUESblogARTSNB-04-2048x774.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\">[work in progress], Arctic Circle 2023, June 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>These images are now physical ghostly icons of the past and present to examinate our future.
