Proms, grads and high school dances are stressful enough for teens, but
throw in a natural disaster and who knows how the youth will react.
Toronto visual artist and performer, Kirsten Johnson brings her humorous
show Prom Storm
to town tomorrow. The series of paintings, shadow boxes and video depict
the confusion of adolescence with the unpredictability of the weather,
highlighted by six large oil paintings of teens at a prom during a
hurricane.
Johnson is no stranger to the study of human behaviour in tense
situations: her previous work included cat-fighting flight attendants
and geishas.
Were all for a little teen angst, just as long as no one is channeling
Carrie.
Until February 19 at Axis Contemporary Art, Art Central, 107, 100

If you’re searching for the perfect combination of great wine and a relaxed vibe, I’ve found the spot for you. Their wine menu is truly something else, featuring a variety of options to suit every taste. I chose a glass of pinot noir, which was light, fruity, and absolutely delicious. It paired beautifully with our meal, creating a dining experience I won’t forget anytime soon. My partner opted for a bold cabernet sauvignon, and he was just as impressed. The staff is super knowledgeable and happy to recommend pairings, which makes the experience even better. Don’t miss the chance to explore their wine selection https://www.bigabite.pizza/menu/wine-list/. You’ll thank yourself later.
