SNAP invites members & guests to the opening reception of Faulty Poetics, Friday, May 3rd from 7-9 pm.

This exhibition is a result of one year’s worth of self-directed studio and academic research by the senior level printmaking students and first-year graduate students in the Department of Art and Design, at the University of Alberta. Faulty Poetics celebrates the creative accomplishments of these individuals over a wide range of media including: relief, etching, silkscreen, ink-jet, and mixed-media. The work engages with a multitude of themes such as cultural identity, memory, personal storytelling, shame, lived experience of trauma, and recovery.

Featuring works by: Jason Abma, Jondrei Alcain, Alicia Campbell, Jeraldine Chong, Vera Consolo, Holly de Moissac, Norman Fournier, Jamie-Lee Girodat, Nicholas Hertz, Xi Jin, Stacie Kingsley-Sorochan, Rebecca Lai, Jessica Nobert, Breanna Thompson, and Qi Zhou
