The Lake Country Art Gallery presents its summer exhibition, Moored, featuring an installation of artworks by the Davis Road Collective. Comprising of three women artists, Jane Everett, Lilly Thorne, and Lysle Barmby, the collective unites their creative skills from various western cities, driven by a shared concern for the encroachments of industry and recreation on the pristine interior of BC.
As the delicate balance of lakes and forests faces escalating threats from clear-cutting, the pine beetle epidemic, and a paradoxical form of 'recreation' that clashes with the very environment it aims to appreciate, the Davis Road Collective explores these pressing issues through their unique artistic expressions. Through a harmonious blend of photography, drawing, and textiles, this exhibition invites viewers to deeply contemplate their impact on the natural world.
