visit this lovely lady for some intense and heartbreakingly beautiful poetryI am currently working with the wonderful faculty and artists at Concordia University, and will be completing my undergraduate degree in Studio Arts in 2015. I was born and raised in the city of Kitchener, Ontario, and moved to the lively and artistic city of Montreal at the age of 19. There, I learned the arts of independence, self-expression, falling in love, and finding home.
My projects are often inspired from deeply personal events. I treat my work as an opportunity to connect with others. I hope that by looking inward, by expressing truthfully and openly, I can reach an audience who might just need a little bit of vulnerability in their lives. My greatest artistic inspiration is the installation artist, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, whose life work was singularly dedicated to one person, but still managed to touch the hearts of countless anonymous human beings. I am always considering how Gonzalez-Torres affected the world in such an open, honest, and simple way.
In my work, I address the importance of spacial awareness. I make connections between people and their land. I strive to confront the meanings of ‘home’ and ‘nativity’. I question how our land influences our bodies and our thoughts, and I do so through observation drawing, meditation, self-reflection, and with the help of powerful symbolism.
Thank you for taking the time to view and learn about my work. If you have any questions or feedback, please email me at cleyburne@hotmail.com

I May Be A Day Early But I Want To Wish U A....
"Happy Birthday"... means much more than have a happy day; within these words lie lots of things we never get a chance to say; but most of all I guess it means that I'm thinking of your happiness on this, your special day...
I Hope U Have A Blessed And Wonderful Day.
May All Your Wishes Come True

carly I LOVE your new work, it is absolutely gorgeous and so emotional... reminds be of german expressionism, I think it's fantastic! Are you enjoying the program at Carlton?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
oh man what a good comparison! thank you!
i'm actually at Concordia, not Carlton, but that's cool, i'm impressed you even knew it started with a C.
and it's good here, I actually love the program...it's funny though I was just talking to some friends who don't like it so much, so i guess it just happened to suit me really well but it's not for everyone. do you have any plans for good ol' post-secondary?

I'm in the process of getting caught up on your poetry, you've been busy it seems in that regard! And trying to branch out a bit too maybe?

I have seen more
since we met
Perhaps too much
perhaps too less
Im sure you have
too
But your colours
are still more vivid
and though I stare little
I see the draw and lick
have also become stronger
in your work
