window is please to present our thirty-second installation, Dear Cheryl (2017) by Kristin Nelson, on view until April 30th.

Statement

The name, Cheryl Lashek, in its particular and cursive font, is familiar, and rests on the tip of our local and collective tongues. This ‘feeling of knowing’ becomes a unity of culture, or meme, borrowing its form from what is seemingly insignificant.

While the physical machinations of our world are attended to on earth, by architects and by engineers, our necks crane ever higher.

Cheryl Lashek is a professional engineer who works for the City of Winnipeg in the position of Director, Inspection and Technical Services. Her name and signature font is recognizable on valid elevator permits across Manitoba. Cheryl Lashek remains unavailable for comment.
