Artist Talk with Dr. Lee Gass
Art & the Science of Perception: Stories from a Lifetime of Sculpting
In this entertaining talk, Lee explores how humans perceive forms and colours. Highlighting examples from the worlds of art and science, Lee invokes fresh ways of seeing and feeling.
As an educator and scientist, stories have been his main medium for communication.
As a sculptor, stories continue to unfold through his art.
” I have been immersed in a world of stories my whole life. My sculpting is another way of telling stories – through shape and form.” remarks Lee.
Dr Lee Gass is an award-winning sculptor, a beloved UBC professor emeritus, national recipient of the Canadian University Professor of the Year award, world-renowned hummingbird researcher, and an engaging story-teller.
The new Lee Gass Sculpture Gallery on Cortes Island is located at 961 Gregg Road and is open on weekends.
