Moving Throughlines
Juried by artists Tsēmā, Sandeep Johal, and curator Krystal Paraboo, this exhibition presents work in a range of mediums including photography, installation, mixed media, ceramics, painting, fiber, glass, and video by nine local Black, Indigenous, and artists of colour.
Moving Throughlines highlights shared themes and ideas fluctuating within the artists’ work; themes including identity politics, family, globalization, language, hidden violence, tradition, representation, cultural assimilation, and the disruption of oppressive systems. These ideas are explored by the artists in different ways and, where they intersect, offer further opportunities for connection and conversation.
Artists: Aman Aheer, Vanessa Figueroa, Mona Hedayati, Josephine Lee, Melody Markle, Sora Park, John Sebastian, Michelle Sound, and Reyhaneh Yazdani
