I actually went to school for dental assisting and I’m a self taught photographer. I had my first little and knew I didn’t want to go back to work. During my maternity leave\, I started a Social media marketing business where I purchased my first camera (Canon Rebel t5i) so that I could take better photos for the businesses that I was running social media for. I ended up loving the photo taking part so much more than the social media part so quickly switched over to only photography. \nIf you have any questions\, reach out to info@visacgallery.com \nRegister here: https://revenue-can.keela.co/youth-photography-workshop

SUMMARY:“Uno” by Raul Pous Facha
DESCRIPTION:Meet Raul: Architect\, Artist\, and Digital Fabrication Visionary\n\n\n\n“I’m Raul\, an architect and artist of Mexican origin\, now based in Canada since 2022. My lifelong fascination with materials and manufacturing techniques has deeply influenced my approach to design. While I’ve always appreciated the artistry and individuality of handmade products\, I’ve also recognized the challenges they face in achieving precision and consistent quality.\n\n\n\nThis curiosity led me to digital fabrication\, where I discovered the power to translate complex designs into reality with precision and control. Through the fusion of technology and craftsmanship\, I am able to create pieces that retain the unique essence of handmade work while elevating their quality and accuracy.”\n\n\n\nExhibition Dates: March 10 – 20\, 2025\n\n\n\nOpening Reception: Thursday\, March 13 from 4:00pm-5:30pm\n\n\n\nGallery Hours: Monday-Friday\, 12pm-4pm\n\n\nTo learn more\, visit us at: https://visacgallery.com/exhibitions/#unoraulpousfacha
