Becoming Leslie Peters April 2 - April 21, 2004 Presented in conjunction with the Images Festival 2004 Leslie Peters is the Images Festival's 2004 Canadian Spotlight Artist

Becoming is a multiple projection and audio installation that uses landscapes shot at dusk and dawn to both express and evoke the visceral qualities of grief, fear, terror and transformation. In this ongoing examination of barren landscapes, Leslie Peters creates a holistic environment into which viewers can insert themselves, both emotionally and physically. The landscapes in becoming are sites of regeneration, contemplation and emotional release. Bio Toronto-based artist Leslie Peters has been actively working in video, multi-channel installation, curating exhibitions and coordinating cultural events since 1997. Her video works have shown internationally and throughout North America.
