Barry Doupé, Whose Toes

Whose Toes

Barry Doupé (British Columbia)
March 18, 2011 to April 17, 2011
Whose Toes is a distant, false memory. Showcasing the late Princess Diana and John F. Kennedy as its main characters, it is an invitation to return to past events that have caused discomfort and, collective trauma, and to re-imagine a misstep in time. The narrative threads need to be spoken aloud to be... {read more}

 

 

Je me souvenir

February 25, 2011 to March 06, 2011

December 18, 2010 to January 09, 2011
Passing by the gallery, one glances at what seems like a naked person leaning against the window; a shoulder, cheeks, a hand, two surfaces that could be parts of a back and arm appear vaguely. Yet, the body is dislocated and most of it disappears in blurry depths. Vu que… proposes an elliptic view of a... {read more}

 

 
Blue Skies

Blue Skies

Kristi Ropeleski (Montréal)
November 05, 2010 to December 05, 2010
Blue Skies is an idea that represents a familiar occurrence/image, a vast space and an idealized state. It addresses both the limit of a sense, in the way that I can’t see beyond a blue sky, and the awareness that it is not a flat surface. This ‘space’ cuts both ways through the things I... {read more}
