Graeme Patterson: Secret Citadel
Graeme Patterson: Secret Citadel
Secret Citadel tells a story of friendship through four large-scale sculptural installations featuring detailed miniature worlds, complemented by stop-motion animation. An anthropomorphized bison and cougar represent the artist Graeme Patterson and his first best friend in this visual coming-of-age tale that is as playful as it is poignant. Although based on specific memories of the artist’s past, Secret Citadel draws you into its captivating worlds by highlighting universal themes of love and loss, play and competition, companionship and loneliness.
New Brunswick-based artist Graeme Patterson will be giving an artist's tour of his exhibition before the opening reception on Saturday, January 16 at 6:30pm. The opening reception goes from 7:30 to 9:30pm.
Co-curated by Melissa Bennett and Sarah Fillmore, Secret Citadel is on tour from the Art Gallery of Hamilton and Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. Surrey Art Gallery is the only museum to see it at in British Columbia.
