PhotoSensitive’s latest exhibition, The Fuel of Life (formerly called The Energy Project), is due to launch at Brookfield Place, Toronto, on November 28 at 6.30pm.  The exhibition, produced in partnership with the Ontario Sustainable Energy Association, had a sneak peak appearance in Europe this month.

A mini version of the show appeared in Riga, Latvia, produced in partnership with the Canadian Embassy. A selection of 20 Fuel of  Life photos appeared at the Riga City Council on October 5 and then moved to the Environment and Energy Fair at the Kipsala International Exhibition Centre on October 20-23.

There are plans for the mini exhibition to show at other Baltic and central European countries over the coming 12 months.

About 150 people attended the dinner where work from the book was displayed and a copy of the book was placed at every table. At the end of the night, those books were given away to one person at each of the tables when the MC informed everyone who had a daffodil taped to their saucer got to take the book home courtesy of the Canadian Cancer Society.

The Canadian Cancer Society’s Darren Dick was the MC for the evening. Darren became involved with the Canadian Cancer Society in 1996, shortly after he was diagnosed with cancer, as the vice president of the Dartmouth Unit, where he was involved in much of the fundraising and recruiting for the branch.

“In this room this evening we have people from all over Nova Scotia who have one thing in common, said Darren.

“They fight cancer. And they do it in extraordinary ways. If you ask any one of them about their volunteer experience, they’ll tell you that they don’t do it alone. That they have a team of volunteers who make it all happen. But we know that extraordinary teams exist because of people who lead by example and we are here to celebrate those leaders this evening.

“I’d like to draw your attention to the books that are displayed on your tables this evening. Cancer Connections: Images of Hope and Courage From Across Canada is brought to us by PhotoSensitive, the same folks who partnered with the Canadian Cancer Society to bring the Cancer Connections exhibition to cities across Canada in 2010. Many of you will remember the display at the corner of Spring Garden Road and Queen Street last summer.”
