Edgar R. Hernandez
Projection média et installation de sculptures
Edgar Hernandez (Eddy) est un artiste prolifique guatémaltèque-canadien qui présente une nouvelle vision de la nature et de la vie. Travaillant au sein des communautés vers une grande préoccupation pour le changement climatique et social, il a produit divers courts métrages expérimentaux et documentaires. Son superbe montage vidéo multisensoriel, Live Connected, lors du symposium community blueprint expose les enjeux relationnels entre créativité et changement au sein de notre société. Alors que la porte de l'imagination s'ouvre, de nouvelles philosophies de créativité, de vie et de conscience apparaissent. Hernandez a vu son travail exposé dans de nombreuses expositions collectives, notamment le festival du film et des arts médiatiques Asinabka dans le cyberespace, le One World Film Festival et Fresh Paint / New Construction Gallery Art Mûr, Montréal.
He holds degrees in art and design, including a BFA (Sculpture and Media) from the University of Ottawa with a minor in Spanish. Furthermore, he earned a college diploma in Graphic Design from La Cité collégiale. Navigating through the current social changes, Hernandez has filmed numerous short videos of indigenous knowledge and wisdom through the Eagle and Condor Collective.
Hernandez est actuellement professeur d'art pour l'Association pour l'Intégration Sociale d'Ottawa (AISO). Il est également un bénévole actif dans la communauté locale et a contribué à des projets communautaires à l'étranger au Guatemala et en République dominicaine.
