In this new group exhibition, Norberg Hall presents work by artists based across Canada who interrogate the human relationship to nature. Through painting, drawing, collage and sculpture on a small and large scale, artists Stanzie Tooth, Sean Jena Taal, Marigold Santos, Sondra Meszaros, Zachari Logan, Yvonne Kustec, Jude Griebel, Laura Findlay and Robin Arseneault re-envision human interaction and the ecological world through our presence. Reflecting themes of mortality, rebirth, growth, hope and metamorphosis Natural Surroundings seeks to offer a symbiotic response to the complex divide we live in the Anthropocene. Each artist weaves together human and non-human existence reimagining present and future global potentials of a hybrid living world.
The human figure surfaces in many manifestations throughout Natural Surroundings whether it be literal, imagined, or metaphysical. The viewer finds fresh narratives that reposition the body within the environment.
