Aaron Moore is a Northern Irish artist currently in his fourth and final year at OCAD university. He’s interested in photography and ways which it can be mixed with other mediums and re-articulated. He’s been living in Toronto for four years now and is part of The Pendulum Project, a grassroots organization dedicated to raising the profile of emerging artists through community engagement.

The inaugural artist-in-residence of this five year initiative is acclaimed London based artist and filmmaker, Isaac Julien.
