**THIS IS THE FIRST OF FOUR ARTISTS TO BE REVEALED THIS WEEK. STAY TUNED INTO <STABLETALK> FOR A NEW ARTIST AND LOCATION EVERY DAY!**

By Jason Van Horne

The year is 2210. It has been several hundred years since humans have inhabited the City of Vancouver. This is a glimpse at one of the city’s landmark structures, the main branch of the Vancouver Public Library. Although it has become overgrown with vegetation and much of it has crumbled, it still stands. While this may seem unnerving to some it is also very likely comforting to those who may, despite being human, secretly wish mother nature to prevail in the end.

Biography
Jason has worked within a range of mediums that include drawing and painting, sculpture installation, community arts and art production for independent films and theatre. Post-apocalyptic scenarios in film and fiction have been of great influence on his work as he is primarily focused on the depiction of cities, real or fictionalized, in some state of ruin and decay. He graduated from the Ontario College of Art & Design in 2002 from the Sculpture/Installation Department.
