Bio
Bryan Faubert received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Nova Scotia University of Art and Design and his Master of Fine Arts from the University of Calgary in 2020. In 2014, he opened Studio 34, a sculpture studio, where he taught workshops and classes and conducted his studio endeavours. This space was about accessibility to the public to experiment and learn, creating shared knowledge.
His most acclaimed artwork, YYC/LRT, is a decommissioned Calgary C-Train transformed into a public artwork with a retrofitted art studio. From this sculpture, Faubert implements public engagement activities such as workshops, mentorship programming, art instruction, classes, and public lectures. YYC/LRT sits proudly at the NVRLND. Arts Foundation. This artwork will operate from this location for the foreseeable future, where Faubert intends to keep putting this C-Train back in service to the public at large. This artwork was inspired by an apprenticeship the artist did in 2019 in New York City with internationally acclaimed sculptor Cal Lane.
