ABOUT THE ARTIST: Ron Simmer is a local Vancouver sculptor from the Burning Man community and exhibits public art in BC and several US states. As chairman of ReVision the Art of Recycling Society he produces a wide spectrum of art from upcycled materials and found objects, from Pop to Steampunk. His work is interactive, questioning and direct. He contributes large scale, and fun art to festivals and events celebrating music, spirituality and community – art for the moment. He creates art highlighting environmental issues – plastic pollution, destruction of the biosphere and the global climate disaster.
This show will include Ron’s most recent confabulation – full size interactive mother and child robots, on the theme of robots replicating, in the world of steampunk and upcycled art science fiction.
