Lesley Gering aka Fireweed is an award winning Emily Carr Graduate, Mother and Motorcyclist who crosses the mediums with photography, film, writing, video, 2D art and even fire performance. Her work has been published in over fifty publications worldwide and her photography and writing have been published in over a dozen motorcycle magazines internationally. For her next art show, she explores the themes of modern technology and ancient rites. Her passion for riding motorcycles and for the ancient near east and Indian culture have brought her to the top of the Himalayas on small dirt bikes and into the archives of Eastern European engineeringscientific museums discovering that science and old mythology have links – you just have to look between the lines. With each stroke and each layer, sometimes taking as many as three months to finish twenty layers of paint on each work she pushes the boundaries of fabricated and body mechanics in humanity and machine.
