Arts Unfold

Arts Unfold Arts Unfold produces art residencies, collaborative design-making events, and multi-disciplinary exhibitions.

Arts Unfold produces art residencies, and art and design projects, in Canadian and European communities to foster greater understandings of social and environmental conditions. Projects have included: coordinating art residencies at Artscape Gibraltar Point (Toronto Island, Canada), which brings in professional artists as Facilitators; producing and facilitating Naked State art residency at Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park (just north of Toronto, Canada), whereby the artists and Facilitator live as *naturists (in the n**e) within the Bare Oaks naturist community; and organizing and facilitating a co-created vision statement for a healthy Toronto waterfront with 80 citizens. Future projects include leading a jury on behalf of Azores International Fringe Festival for their Mountain photography competition, and an art residency on the theme of “water,” to occur on the island of Pico, Azores in 2017. Art Director of Arts Unfold, Teresa Ascencao, is an award-winning multimedia artist, with an active national and international exhibition record. She has over a decade of administration experience, including at the executive level. For several years, she delivered media art workshops at Ontario schools, and to economically and geographically disadvantaged youth in Toronto and northern communities. Ascencao is driven by her love for community, social and ecological issues, and working with creative minds in art and design. Ascencao graduated with distinction from the University of Toronto’s Honours Fine Art Studio program, and received her MFA from OCAD University specializing in Media Art and Sex-Positive Feminism. She lives and works in Toronto and teaches at OCADU.
