Unofficial Nuit Blanche 2012

Here are photos from off-the-grid, unofficial / independent Nuit Blanche exhibits on the west end. We opted out of the massive lines downtown in favour of more intimate settings, pop-up projects, poutine, shawarmas, karaoke and opera vocalists on vans.

Areas explored : Parkdale, West Queen West, Trinity Bellwoods Park, Kensington Market, 401 Richmond aka Party Central

Some works are anonymous, self explanatory, but everything upon chance. We've also levelled the playing field and shot on a 5MP point and shoot instead of a fancy schmancy DSLR.



We've also got a lovely site non-specific audio recording from an independent project, LEITMOTIF series, titled Apollonia by Nina Leo where, one at a time, you board a truck, and get sung to. It was an outstanding end to our sleepless night.
