"Ingrid Koivukangas to be Featured as Resident Artist on ZeD TV"
2002-03-18 until 2002-03-22
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
Vancouver, BC, CA Canada

Ingrid Koivukangas has been invited to be the first artist in residence at CBC TV Vancouver for the new ZeD TV pilot program. ( http://www.zed.cbc.ca ). this new series is an interlacing of TV and internet. It appears on the air, coast to coast, with the first week running from March 18 to 22 from 11:25 pm to 12:25 am, with internet 24/7.

Koivukangas will be creating a site-specific installation work in the studio, based on outdoor sites. Viewers will be able to follow the artist's progress nightly, as well as, send comments and download maps online of the sites where she is working. There are also other artists involved - musicians, singers, dancers, writers, spoken word - with Bif Naked as host.

Ingrid Koivukangas classifies her work as environmental sculpture or land based art. It encompasses many mediums including site specific ephemeral works, photography, video, sound, installation, collage and the internet. She works at and from sites in the natural world. Viewers are encouraged to leave the gallery setting with maps to find ephemeral site specific works. The gallery work itself ranges from installations bringing site materials to the gallery via video, photography, sound to framed works that combine site photographs with topographic maps, aerial photographs, stereoscopic glasses, GPS readings and natural site materials -- that combined act as a map to the site.

Koivukangas has participated in several artist-in-residencies in both Europe and Canada. She has exhibited for the past eight years across Canada.
