March 29 to May 3 | Open House March 29 - 1 PM to 3 PM | Unsellable Objects recalls these lofty goals through a series of small objects sitting quietly in the gallery with no other job than to change the air around them.

Controlled Burn is a site-adaptive video and sound installation that documents a barn burning that took place in the small town of Listowel, Ontario in 2018. A blank model of the barn suspended from the ceiling of the gallery serves as a 3-dimensional screen for video documentation of the fire. Behind the barn, a large single-channel video is projected onto and through a netted screen, filling the entire Reid Gallery with the video.

Give or Take a Few Million Years references Earth’s deep and complex history. The exhibition explores an intimate view of geology through imagery and concepts that focus on knowledge, care, and connection to the land. Carol Wallace offers a visual anthology of stories archived in the rocks, providing an embodied understanding of Earth using textiles, video projection, ink drawings, sound, and sculpture.

The stand-alone objects are re-manufactured trees which in time could be assumed to be what a forest is, and by our social nature assimilated as real. The concept of taking the drawings on paper attached to wood frameworks to become trees emphasizes the extent to which we as humans will travel to justify the costs of our desires. Join us on February 1st at 1 pm to hear David's Artist Talk.

The up to seven foot tree trunks are shaped with chainsaws and chisels into the human figure. Just one crucial part is missing: the head. Fragile and headless they stand in the public space. As if they lost their senses somewhere. And in a desperate measure these wooden bodies try to replace the void between their shoulders with up rooted tree stumps, the trash from clear cuts. These ill fitting crowns question the human as the pinnacle of evolution.

Altered Perceptions explores the stories and narratives around the death of Rowan, the madness, the quest for healing and the altering effect it had on me and my perceptions of the natural world. As it was in his painted world, I too experienced some along with the deep crippling dread I found a new sense of who my daughter was, what her life meant. Held up by her strength and her etherial grace, we found so much magic in everything she was teaching us.

The Life and Times of G builds on a previous project Fine Line: Check Check, which explored the certainty and doubt associated with obsessive-compulsive behaviour. Similarly, this new work uses four screens to cast doubt and asks the viewer to question the conscious or unconscious nature of their movement as they engage with the work.

Boat without a Boat features brand new work from Nelson-based painter Deborah Thompson. In the exhibition, elaborate cut paper drawings form narrative constellations which become the basis of stop motion animation works.

Treelines assembles a series of Gwen MacGregor’s photographs and videos with a forest of crocheted trees—altering perspectives, toying with memory, loss, and environmental degradation.

Paul Walde explores the unexpected interconnections between landscape, identity, and technology through interdisciplinary performance works staged in the natural world. Weather Events brings together two video installations that draw connections between how we perceive landscapes and interact with our world.

Currents is a large-scale installation that depicts our complex and often conflicted relationship with watersheds within the context of a changing climate. Comprising a grid of 150 individual prints that form a composite image, Kelsey Stephenson’s work focuses on the human impacts to water systems through visual explorations of the ice, snow, and moving water found in glaciers, rivers, and lakes.

Brent Bukowski works primarily with reclaimed materials, reanimating discards into compositions that explore environmental, historical, and cultural themes, particularly their relationship with climate change.

Sandra Sawatzky is an artist on a mission, one tiny stitch at a time. Through her work she is transforming our perception of embroidery as an art form while drawing attention to the larger social, political, and environmental issues that affect us all.

The images feel like ethereal encounters. Some appear like spirits or ghosts while others feel familiar yet unknown. Many characters exist as singular portraits living within a greater constellation of beings that transfer feelings into the surrounding space. These feelings create an emotional tapestry connecting the artwork to the viewer, the viewer to the space, and viewers to each other. Though the characters appear in physical form, it is less about the portraits and more about what is contained within them. Katie Green's exhibition will be in the Central Gallery from May 6th to August 12th.

Reid says that he paints from rather than on. His subject since the 1950s has included the figure. A transformative eros of man and/or woman combined with landscape came later but that is what he paints from. He says his arm knows what to paint more than his head does. He states in his memoir that he wants his work to look “unlaboured, clear, confident, controlled,”[2] and tries always for urgency and fluidity in the execution.

Since 1994, Tsuneko’s practice has been based around her home in Silverton, BC. While it has been deeply influenced by the local ecology and a connection to the landscape, themes of displacement, belonging, and interconnectedness are woven throughout. Known for her vibrant paintings, performance pieces, set design, and choreography, this exhibition features a selection of Tsuneko’s work across all media. Tsuneko Kokubo's exhibition will be in the Reid Gallery from May 6th to August 12th.
