As we plan our next project “Dreams & Demands,” we are reflecting our January exhibition “Spoiled Lemons” with our long awaited curatorial walkthrough! Get to know more about the artists exhibited and reminisce with us about this exhibition that explored the opulent and grotesque nature of the question, “What happens when you turn a person inside out?” 🦠🍋
Nosy Mag’s very own Alexia Kokozaki (@alexiakkzki) leads us through a walk on the dark side, exploring each of the seven artist’s explorations of the feelings that inhabit and gnaw at them 👀👀👀

Want to learn more about the exhibiting artists in "Jinx!"❓Follow Nosy Mag's very own art interpreter, Alexia Kokozaki (@alexiakkzki,) as she walks you through each work, delving into their stories and conceptual nature. 🧠
"Jinx!" brought together ten artists who explore referencing, translation, (mis)communication and recontextualization to deepen or play with meaning in their work. Sharing profound thoughts, nonsense, and plain weird ideas, Jinx! intercepted and translated personal, cultural, and digital messages into sometimes meaningful, sometimes absurd, works of art.

Sarah Jasmine Hodgson
she/her
Editorial Director
Sarah Jasmine Hodgson is a Newmarket-raised wannabe cowgirl who is still convalescing from having lived in the suburbs. When she’s not rewatching Spaghetti Westerns or facing her ongoing fear of horses, she’s working on her next creative endeavour. As an emerging visual artist having exhibited in Ottawa and Montreal, Sarah creates public installations and was listed for the 2020 Scotiabank New Generation Photography Award. She actively pursues curatorial projects and will soon be hitting the books as a graduate student in Carleton’s Masters of Philanthropy and Nonprofit Leadership program. Sarah’s noted for her nocturnal working habits, her ever-growing collection of questionable knick-knacks, and for notoriously twiddling her cowlick.

Emily Neufeld
she/her
Illustrator & Contributor
Emily Neufeld is a graduate from Algonquin College’s Fine Arts program, a near-graduate of uOttawa’s BFA program, and still avoids drawing the live model’s feet. Ostensibly an artist, she enjoys drawing, green-screening herself into places she shouldn’t be, experimenting in various mediums, and eating olives at vernissages. With no awards or accolades to her name, Neufeld maintains that her ability to recite obscure Monty Python skits is potentially worthy of note. She lives with two embarrassingly-named cats and is still waiting for David Duchovny to return her calls.

Alexia-Leana Kokozaki
she/her
Writer & Contributor
Alexia-Leana Kokozaki is a Canadian-Cypriot artist based in the Ottawa-Gatineau region who works at the National Gallery of Canada. She makes art, she talks art, she writes art... she does it all! Armed with a BFA and a Masters in Art History, she is infamous for her bouncy curls and her indulgence in the finer things of life once every-too-often. No, she does not need those leather boots or that donut, but she will get them anyway. When she is not doing any art-related activities, you will find her happily daydreaming and forgetting about the cup of coffee she just made herself.

Brianna Fitzgerald
she/her
Editor & Contributor
Brianna Fitzgerald is an artist and human from Ottawa, Ontario. She holds a BFA in media art from the University of Ottawa and has been desperately looking for somewhere to put it down since 2018. She loves sparkly things and going to concerts alone. She is not afraid to look up words she doesn’t know, and is very upset when others do not do the same. Brianna was awarded the C.D. Howe Scholarship for Art and Design from the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts in 2018, and was an artist in residence at Cow House Studios in Ireland in 2019.

Megan McKague
she/them
Editor-in-Chief
Megan, previously the Editor-in-Chief for the Ottawa Arts Review, is an ethereal ghost caught in the in-between. While their apparition has been seen penning letters by candlelight, her passion for creative writing has won awards during her time with the living. Nowadays, this gentle poltergeist is the owner of a business centered around self-understanding and self-expression.

Creanna Hope Wade
she/her
Writer & Contributor
Creanna Hope Wade goes by the name Hope. Hope is a writer, curator, and emerging artist originally from Prescott, Ontario. She completed her BA in Psychology with a Minor in Art History and Theory at the University of Ottawa in 2020. As long as we're getting a bit technical, Hope's large eyeballs can perceive higher frequencies of light than most people. This allows her to shoot gamma rays from her eyes, and spot wicked nice artwork from a mile away.

Marianne Brown
she/her/elle
Grant Applications Assistance & Writer
Marianne Brown is a Canadian and French artist, art writer, occasional curator, recreational life-drawer, and all-around nerd. She has a master’s degree in Contemporary Art Theory and a bachelor’s in Visual Arts and Psychology from the University of Ottawa. She's a real hedonist who loves to cook, eat, paint, look at art, and stare at bugs crawling on flowers by the Rideau river. The best compliment she ever received is that she "reminds one of what it means to be human," given the numerous and often overwhelming feelings she is constantly going through.

Chloé Beaulieu
she/her/elle
Graphic & Web Designer
Chloé is a graphic designer and illustrator based in Outaouais. After discovering she has Aphantasia, she decided to ditch her corporate design style to explore her more playful, colourful and creative side. This also permits Chloé to challenge her image-free thinking. Instead of asking her if she can picture something (spoiler alert...no can do), ask her if she wants to go rock climbing. This is how all great friendships begin with her.

Yekta Çetinkaya
he/him
Writer & Contributor
Yekta Çetinkaya is an immigrant visual artist from Istanbul, Turkey. He holds a BFA from the Department of Visual Arts at the University of Ottawa where he currently works, as he is unable to leave his home away from home. A sociable introvert, he’ll talk to you endlessly about art, cinema, and music. As much as he would like to think of himself as a nomad, if it weren’t for Ottawa’s arts community, he wouldn’t leave his apartment where David Bowie’s music plays 24/7. Driven by research, his current obsessions are the history of scientific discovery, astrophysics, and perfumery.
