Event Details
“Forest Gifts” is a Kanyenke’ha’ka (Mohawk) and Annishinabe collaboration of honouring and expressing their relationship with the Tree Nations and their many gifts and generosity to us as human beings. This exhibit involved the construction of the log mortars and pestles (crafted from donated local sources), and creating stamps to print the log-rings using Walnut Ink. This results in stunning log ring prints that will make you consider your relationship with nature in a way like none other.
Janice Brant Kahèhtoktha is Kanyanke’ha’ka from Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory, Ontario, Canada. She sits with the Bear Clan and carries on her family heritage as a dedicated farmer. She is an artist, scholar, educator, and author of Rotinonhsyon:ni language and culture. An actionist for sacred-ecology and seed conservation, she helped to found Ratinenhayenthos “they are farmers of the seed” and the Kenhte:ke Seed Sanctuary & Learning Centre (KSSLC), host to a living seed collection.
On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (September 30, 2023) Melt Studio Gallery will also display Janice Brant Kahèhtoktha’s piece “Lateral Kindness”.
Janice Brant Kahèhtoktha’s “Forest Gifts” are displayed at Melt Gallery from September 16- October 8th. There will be an opening reception Sept. 23 7-9 pm open to the public, happening at Melt Gallery (located at Base 31). Melt Studio Gallery is located at Base 31 in Picton and is open to the public Thursdays through Sundays, 11-5.

John Gregg is a graduate of the Royal West of England College of Art. He emigrated to Canada in 1966 where he worked as an Art Director for four years. He formed his own company in 1970. The company operated until 1999, garnering both National and International Design awards throughout the course of its existence. Throughout his professional career, John Gregg has pursued his love of fine art, drawing, and painting. This has resulted in joint exhibitions of his work at the Bristol Museum. Frost and Reed and Hazelton Lanes Galleries with one man shows at the University of Toronto (Erin Mills Campus) and the Post Office Gallery, Oakville. His work is also represented in National and international collections, including a sixteen by eight foot mural in the reception area of the Erco Tenneco group building. His work is equally balanced between portraiture and landscape, and sometimes a combination of both. It falls broadly between expressionism and impressionism.
Painters that have influenced his work include: Kokoschka, Degas, the post-impressionists, as well as British schools of painting indicative of the work of Sutherland, Augustus John, Eardley, Freud, and others of that period.
He works mainly from sketches, water colour notes and photographs for landscapes and model sketches for portraiture.
John Gregg perceives a painting as a crystallization of mood, time, and space.
Come see this solo show of John Gregg’s work at Melt Gallery from September 21-October 15. Please join us for the opening reception on September 23 from 1-4 PM
