The Oakville Chamber Ensemble includes 19 amateur and professional musicians which performs two main concerts each year at Central Baptist Church and is now in its eighth year of operation. “Art has the capacity to Iran- scend the everyday, to increase the awareness of our place in the world,” says the artist, who also works with video, film and music. “Simulacra” (basically some- thing made to resemble some other thing) represents Kasperbauer’s effort to allow both himself and his viewers to connect with the world of dreams and myth. show, “The rearrangement of images of people, places and things produces works that are powerful, politically charged and humorous. “Kasperbauer scavenges for frames in the same way he looks for images, collecting frames (from) a number of sources such as second- hand stores, garage sales and antique stores. He makes no attempt to hide the frame’s history; frames are worn, refurbished and embel- lished.”
