Me and The Nuit
1070 days ago · Sarah Lazarovic
For some reason Montreal holds its Nuit Blanche in February. This makes for a much less crowded, if intermittently icy, arty experience. We spent most of our time at a former pool, where djs danced in front of video projections and patrons admired the photos and fridge video booths. I love Montreal. Where else can you find yourself dancing to Bye Bye Mon Cowboy in a vintage bathhouse at 4:00 a.m.?On another note, is it good or bad that I'm starting to like the crappy photos that my iPhone cam takes? There are occasional beauties amidst the dreck.

Me and Ski
1418 days ago · Sarah Lazarovic
I went cross country skiing for the second time. I decided that my strategy would be to go for it with a child-like fearless ferocity, and if I fell, so be it. I fell. A lot. But it didn't hurt. Also, we came upon a cabane a sucre, and maple syrup erases all bruises.

Missed Connections, Montreal Confections

• Back from Montreal, having consumed too much raw milk cheese to feel entirely awake on this Monday morning. We saw this show at the MACM (yes, I've rhapsodized about Yannick Pouliot before) and, while I couldn't quite get into Farmer and Maggs, Pouliot did not disappoint. Here's a photo from the show -
• What else do I recommend? Not art but verging upon it.
• And here's a missed connection that I did for Saturday's Toronto section of the National Post.

August!
I'm sorry. I've been away, dear portfolio section. If the work is not archived on your lovely pages, does it cease to exist? Let's hope not. For now, Here's Ms. Merkel, a recent piece for The National.
December!

Other Projects
Portrait Project
I'll be doing one portrait a day until I can't do one portrait a day anymore. Not allowed to spend more than an hour on each one.
Long Live Irony
This is my catch-all site - art projects, journalism, weird experiments, all founded in the general belief that irony is not dead, regardless of what Graydon Carter says.
A joint blog where me and the Mr. post our thoughts on fashion and design, and I chronicle my year of not shopping. (I've cheated once.)
The Portrait Gallery
The government has been all kinds of annoying when it comes to creating a respectable National Portrait Gallery of Canada. So we built one in our garage this summer!
