Q: How long have you been an artist? Please tell us a little about your chosen medium.

Miroir: What inspired VALT?
Kat Ferneyhough: There are several alternative fashion events occurring around the globe, and upon deciding to move to the west coast, we found it surprising that a city as creative and unique as Vancouver didn’t already have one. After years of operating as an event coordinator for art exhibitions, mini music festivals, and fashion shows myself, plus Kat Kozak’s experience documenting and managing events as well, it seemed only natural to develop one here together.
Kat Kozak: Ultimately, Kat Ferneyhough shared her vision for the initial concept of VALT with me, and I was honoured to be asked to be a part of it, both as a friend and fellow creative. more » “VALT2016 – 5 Year Anniversary! Exclusive interview with Kat Kozak and Kat Ferneyhough”
Q: Tell us about your beginnings as an artist, when did you begin to draw or paint?
A: I Started to paint at an early age, this became the continuity of my life, although in the beginning I was not conscious of the artist inside me. Over the years all that creative potential became an essential part of my lifestyle, until finally it became my profession. It all flowed in a very natural way to that conclusion. more » “Exclusive interview with Peca”
