Jessie Rose Vala and Stephen Nachtigall, "The Yellow Forest," 2019

Please join us for a free all-ages workshop with Main Space artists Jessie Rose Vala and Stephen Nachtigall on Saturday July 20th, 2019 from 3PM to 6 PM at TRUCK Contemporary Art.

Over the course of the workshop, participants will work closely with the artists to make their own pendants, small patches and/or wizard hats. The workshop will offer the chance to participants to extend aspects of the exhibition for themselves, and will invite participants to consider our deep psychological connections to plant and non-human consciousness, western perceptions of our earthly environment, and wizards.

This workshop is hosted in concert with Jessie Rose Vala and Stephen Nachtigall’s Main Space Exhibition The Yellow Forest.

We hope to see you there!

The Yellow Forest focuses around an expansive multiple channel video installation, sculptural ceramic forms, cut vinyl structures and printed imagery that reference our deep psychological connections to plant and non-human consciousness. The exhibition invokes these connections as a way to re-learn, re-wild, diversify, revive and internalize our bonds to home.

This is your last week to see The Yellow Forest by Jessie Rose Vala and Stephen Nachtigall in the Main Space! Come visit us, we are open Tuesday to Saturday, 12-6 PM.

This is also your last week to visit Meshes, a labyrinthian experimental video installation in the Parkade by Anna Semenoff and Jordan Schinkel.

The opening reception runs on June 7, 2019, from 7 pm – 11 pm.

TRUCK Contemporary Art presents The Yellow Forest by Jessie Rose Vala and Stephen Nachtigall. The Yellow Forest invokes notions of temporality and the shared imaginal in order to address the tenuous connections that contemporary western society has to our earthly environment.

The exhibition focuses around an expansive multiple channel video installation, sculptural ceramic forms, cut vinyl structures and printed imagery that reference our deep psychological connections to plant and non-human consciousness. The exhibition invokes these connections as a way to re-learn, re-wild, diversify, revive and internalize our bonds to home.
