Blue Thunder Circle ARTiFactory is a community of artists, organizations, and patrons that cooperate towards the aim of developing culture worth living in.
The BTC Artifactory facilitates artist residencies: providing private studios, shared workshops, career development paths, exhibit space, and networking opportunities.
The Vision of BTC is to create a thriving ecosystem of resident artists and organizations whom contribute to the vitality of the region through artistic production, educational workshops, and the production of cultural festivals.
BTC is a non-rivalrous space where-in members are supported in their efforts to build their careers while simultaneously contributing to the development of wealth within the community.

‘Through my work I aim to shatter the ‘illusion of separation’, to challenge the viewer to question, and evolve out of ignorance, conditioning and ingrained genetic habits.
In life I strive to take responsibility for the effect of my existence, and through my actions and images, inspire others to think/dream beyond their immediate capacity. Ultimately I seek to create portals that open to the infinite possibilities of being and expressing, so that we may remember and re-discover who we are, where we originate from and where we are headed.
My aspiration is to paint messages, visions and narratives that communicate with an ‘older & wiser us’, awakening ancient memory; as well as the ‘present us’, that we may grow up and accept the responsibilities towards ourselves, each other and the rest of existence on this planet… now.
