Group Exhibition – The Breadth of Distance

I am very glad to announce that I have a group exhibition. The Breadth of Distance, at L Space, Humber Galleries, Toronto

Exhibition: February 4, 2019 – April 5, 2019
Opening:  Wednesday, February 6th, 5-8pm
Curated by: Alize Zorlutuna
Address: Humber College, Lakeshore Campus L Building, 19 Colonel Samuel Smith Park Drive, Toronto, ON M8V 4B

we carry continents,
cross oceans,
traverse vast distances while still.

the scent of comfort,
is also longing.
what goes unsaid,
a kind of knowing.

how do elsewheres live in the body?

in dreams?
half-remembered tongues.
in what cannot be named.

Bringing together photography, video, installation, and sculpture, these artworks shift across geographies, cultural perspectives, and time. Considering grief, longing, care and resilience, they articulate how relationships to place, representation, and belief shape who we are and how we move in the present.

This exhibition asks us to reckon with how we came to be here on this land. Whether we are Indigenous, multi-generational settlers, or recent immigrants, our current moment demands we think through how we might build mutual understanding and empathy while recognizing our many differences.

Workshop–Surrey Art Gallery

I am very pleased to announce that I will have a workshop with youth at  Surrey Art Gallery, BC,  as part of Art Together on April 3, 2018, presented by AgentC Project

This performance art workshop is designed for students who want to learn how to use performance to both challenge and change. This workshop combines a brief introduction of performance art, movements and gestures exercises, and improvisations, helping students to create live art images, actions and rituals, fostering new understanding of the body-based art in our everyday lives. Through this workshop, students will learn how to access and develop their powerful and creative imaginations in an engaging and fun way.  Students will also learn new approaches to art making, how to create various personas, and how to collaborate with their fellow performers to create a new form of art that will challenge traditional ideas of art and transcend the boundaries of nation, gender, and racial identity.
