Patrick Thibert and Patrick Landsley shared insights about their careers and artistic inspirations during St. Thomas Public Arts Centre’s second Artist 2 Artist presentation on Sunday (April 15). STEPAC director, Laura Woermke, moderated the afternoon’s thought-provoking conversation. 

While Thibert is a sculptor and Landsley a painter, the two men have developed a long-standing friendship and benefitted from an on-going exchange of ideas related to art. They exhibited together at STEPAC in 2006/2007 and in the show publication, David Bobier noted:

“Their professional commitments as influential teachers and distinguished practicing artists are exemplary. As teachers their ‘voices’ have contributed to the artistic careers of countless emerging arts practitioners across the country. As artists their work continues to challenge contemporary art theory and practice through a Modernist stance. Their work demands admiration for its exquisite, technical force and for providing the viewer with a combined experience of both the mythological and the real; the depiction of familiar iconicity with deep metaphorical meaning and a confident directness and simplicity of statement.”
