Rotational Gallery Artist
Artist C.M. DUFFY
C.M. Duffy is an artist residing and working in Toronto. His paintings are hanging in private collections throughout the world and he has accomplished many public works within Ontario. In 2021 he worked with the Department of Canadian Heritage to bring a large installation of his work to both Ottawa's Confederation Park and Frankfurt, Germany to celebrate Canada's Guest of Honour status in the Frankfurt Book Fair.​
​
I am calling this curated collection of my work Fruity and Floral Fauna. These paintings are of a whimsically surreal nature inspired by a love of wildlife and wordplay. Each piece twists recognizable elements into something new and I hope the visual wit entertains while inspiring us to look around with a wondrous, fresh gaze. It's my view that imagination is one of our foremost gifts and we must be cautious in our obsessive seeking of objective truth and concrete understanding because there still are slices of magic left for us in this world to discover, enjoy and celebrate.

MEDIAH (Evond Blake)
Evond Blake is a Canadian multidisciplinary visual artist who has worked under the pseudonym MEDIAH for over 25 years.
​
An Internationally renowned visual artist, MEDIAH is a trendsetter sparking new ideas and originality by blurring the lines between post-graffiti and dynamic abstraction. Blake’s work consists of weaving traditional street art forms with traditional painterly techniques and mixed media printmaking using many forms and approaches found in digital art and design. Heavily inspired by avionics, mechanical engineering and schematics, the artwork glorifies and captures the essence of speed, motion, dynamism and force to create movement on the image surface. Blake’s work provides the viewer with not only this glorification of speed relating to the thirst for a faster and more streamline world but also its unavoidable repercussions of collision, disaster and chaos

Meaghan Claire Kehoe
Meaghan Claire Kehoe is a full-time emerging mural artist and painter based in Oshawa with community connections across southern Ontario. Her public street art pieces can be experienced in Toronto, Kitchener, Waterloo, London, St.Thomas and future work is coming soon to Simcoe, Aylmer, Brooklin and Port Burwell.
​
With a fascination toward human psychology and the inner strength to overcome human pain and challenges, Meaghan’s draw is toward representing female strength, depth, resilience and confidence. Meaghan employs symbols from nature, especially to tell a human story that is universal and yet personal to her own. Her works are about connectivity, inclusivity, and awareness. With intense expressive colour, splashes of realism, and punches of geometric shapes and collage, her beautiful aesthetic draws you in. However, it is the prideful subject who welcomes and invites you to stay.

Based between Toronto and the Waterloo Region, Victoria continues to push the boundaries of her art, constantly exploring new ways to express the intricacies of the human psyche.
