He modifies and manipulates objects in unexpected and surprising ways. Through a nuanced play with material, weight, size and perception Moores invites viewers to assess the values, which govern the aesthetics of mass production and consumer culture. Echoing the constant state of transition in our material culture, the artists reimagines ordinary and mundane objects such as cardboard boxes, wooden crates, milk crates and a moving blanket—items that are usually discarded and left to join the accruing detritus of disposable goods. Moores reclaims these objects as cultural artifacts of our time and recreates them in bronze and aluminium to highlight their beauty and potential while honouring the labour of factory working who spend hours on the assembly line. Moores develops each work by hand. Drawing on his extensive knowledge and skills in foundry production and fabrication, these objects signify the dignity and merit of these labour-intensive processes.

Her sculptures and wall works propose connections between synthetic materials and larger social, environmental and economic systems. Jazvac’s current focus is a plastic pollution-focused research group, which includes an interdisciplinary collaboration with geologist Dr. Patricia Corcoran and oceanographer Charles Moore. Their work centres around the discovery and study of a new stone that have termed Plastiglomerate, a mix of natural materials—sand, coral, volcanic rock— and melted plastic debris that washes ashore from the ocean. Their findings have been published in GSA Today, and reported by The New York Times, Science Magazine, The Huffington Post, and The Globe and Mail. They consider this research to be evidence of the Anthropocene, a new geological epoch in which human progress has left an indelible mark upon the fossil record.</span><br><a href="http://www.kellyjazvac.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">www.kellyjazvac.com</span></a><br><a href="http://www.visualinvisible.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">www.visualinvisible.com</span></a><br><br><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Please join us for these thought-provoking exhibitions.</span></strong><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Free and open to the public.</span></strong><br><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(221, 0, 0);">UWAG</span></strong><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">University of Waterloo Art Gallery</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">East Campus Hall 1239</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">519.888.4567 ext. 33575</span><br><a href="http://uwag.uwaterloo.ca/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">uwag.uwaterloo.ca</span></a><br><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(221, 0, 0);">Hours</span></strong><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Tuesday to Saturday</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">12:00-5:00 pm</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Or by appointment</span><br><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(221, 0, 0);">Contact</span></strong><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Ivan Jurakic, Director / Curator</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">519.888.4567 ext. 36741</span><br><a href="mailto:ijurakic@uwaterloo.ca" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">ijurakic@uwaterloo.ca</span></a><br><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(221, 0, 0);">Driving</span></strong><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">263 Phillip Street, Waterloo, ON</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Located in East Campus Hall on Phillip Street off University Avenue West, behind University Plaza</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Use South entrance to ECH across from Engineering 6</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Note: Use Bridgeport Road exit, University Avenue West exit is closed for construction</span><br><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(221, 0, 0);">Parking</span></strong><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Limited meter parking is available behind ECH</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Visitor Parking is available in Lot E6, E5 or Lot B after 3:45 pm</span><br><a href="http://www.uwaterloo.ca/map/index.php" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">http://www.uwaterloo.ca/map/index.php</span></a><br><br><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; color: rgb(221, 0, 0);">Mailing</span></strong><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">University of Waterloo Art Gallery</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">200 University Avenue West</span><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Waterloo, ON, Canada N2L 3G1</span><br><br><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;">Images (left to right): Zeke Moores, <i>Moving Blanket</i>, 2013.
