Nikki Gour has made a life long choice to study, teach, and create art. Nikki is available for bookings for art workshops where Nikki will demonstrate her expertise in creating art based on her own practice “Process Art Using Found Objects” Nikki strongly believes that it is important for students especially in high school to learn more about contemporary art, for it is a type of art that is supported and promoted within society today.

Workshop: "Process Art Using Found Objects"

A presentation shown will include the basic fundamentals of Process Art as a contemporary art form in relation to my art practice. The students will then brake into small groups, as they will have time to brainstorm ideas based on questions given, to create a sculpture using the process discussed in the presentation.

Time will then be given, for students to create a sculpture out of materials that they have brought. At the end of the day there will be a class critique on all sculptures created. This is the basis of my workshop; however I am open to new ideas and am willing to work with the needs and requirements of the school.

Past workshops:

• "Art Works Visual Art Conference", Red Deer College, Red Deer, Alberta
• "Process Art & Found Objects", Central Alberta Teacher Convention Association, Red Deer, Alberta

When commissioning work for people, it is important to Nikki, that she spends time getting to know the clients ideas and expectations. It is important to fulfill the client's needs while incorporating her own style and identity. In so doing, the commissioned work will stand on its own as a work of art.

Past Commission:

• "Mind Storms", Calgary Science Center, Calgary, Alberta
• "Burden Bears Silent Auction", Peace River, Alberta

Nikki has done several private commissions for people upon their request.
