Goon Pack's Glory Days Are Just Beginning...

On Saturday, the vast white walls of Goon Pack Clothing and Gallery will be host to a show of Vancouver local Scott Pommier's work. Pommier is an Ontario ex-pat whose photography focuses on the relationship of humans to their wheels. His portraits are as much of the wheels he is photographing as they are of the people on the wheels. Much of his work is an ode to Vancouver's favourite pastime, skateboarding, but he also explores the world of motorcycles in a series of biker gang road trip and dirt bike images. Pommier's work has graced many covers and pages of magazines like Transworld Skateboarding, and has earned him the 2005 Freesports Photographer of the Year Award. He has shown across the globe from North America to Europe, and his photos are acclaimed by industry and public alike.

Saturday promises to be a busy night for most of us, but I'm definitely going to make time to stop in and pay tribute to a Vancouver boy who's making something of himself! In costume! Me, not him...although I hope he is in costume too!

The opening is from 7-10 pm this Saturday, October 28th.
At Goon Pack Clothing and Gallery, 109 W. Cordova St. @ Abbott St.
