We are Tracy Olan and Jess Koehn, multidisciplinary artists based in Kingston, Ontario. We have had separate but similar art practices for a combined 20 + years before joining creative forces in 2021 with Lovehood, a celebration of art and design in modern settings with a nod to nature.

 

Our first release in January 2022 under our new collaborative Lovehood, was ‘LAKE BLUE', a large-scale living architectural installation for the Design TO festival in Toronto. The project was awarded the Emerging Artist/Designer award, as well as Best in Festival | window installation.

​

The second work born of Lovehood, ’Goldie’, another large-scale wool installation will be a featured fine art piece in the new public Extendicare building in Kingston, opening in the spring of 2023.  

 

We are currently working on a new body of work, including rugs, to be released later this year. We welcome opportunities to create contemporary original works in the unique spaces your life unfolds.
