Charms - "Dog Days of Ontario Culture Days"

Micah Lexier’s Dog Days of Ontario Culture Days is a multi-location conceptual experience exploring the ritual and culture of dogs and their humans.

Dog Days of Ontario Culture Days consists of a pair of independent yet thematically linked components:

Guess Your Dog’s Age or Weight: A performance in which a “carnival guesser” attempts to accurately guess a dog’s age or weight. In exchange for a donation, dog owners will receive a custom-minted coin as a memento of having participated in the project.

A Portrait of The Person Making a Portrait of Your Dog: A live drawing activation where visitors receive a free sketch of their dog by a local sketch artist, while a second artist sketches the first artist at work. Dog owners get to keep their sketch, while Micah Lexier keeps the second sketch, to be included in a subsequent publication.
