Zeke Moores' work, Dumpster, is a replica of an industrial waste container fabricated in bronze.
 
Originally from Newfoundland, Zeke Moores has been living and working in Ontario for the last five years. Heavily influenced by his extensive background in fabrication, blacksmithing and foundry, Moores’ work is preoccupied by the cultural significance and hierarchical systems of value that exist within the objects that surround us. To this end, Moores’ re-proposes and re-fabricates everyday objects, exploring social and cultural economies.  Zeke Moores holds a BFA from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design and graduated from the MFA program at the University of Windsor, Ontario in 2005.  Currently, Moores is showing nationally and internationally, while teaching at the University of Windsor, in Windsor Ontario, and Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario.
