A glimpse of Reece’s talk for Vancouver Design Week
Reece Terris is a Vancouver based artist whose work alters the expected experiential qualities of a place or object through an amplification or shift in the primary function of an original design.
Past projects include a six-storey apartment building temporarily installed in the rotunda of the Vancouver Art Gallery, a pedestrian wooden bridge connecting two residential homes, and an architectural false front added to the existing false front of an artist-run centre.
His practice is manifest through a variety of media, including sculpture, performance, installation, and photography, and quite often, through their hybrid execution, complicates the traditional definitions of each of these.
