What we leave behind Juried Exhibition
August 26, 2022 - October 08, 2022
Description
This year’s juried exhibition invites reflection on legacy. What have we inherited? What do future generations stand to inherit from us? Epigenetics reveals the way trauma and resilience lodges in our bodies and is passed down through generations. The land bears scars from colonial exploitation in the absence of Indigenous land management. Both our bodies and the land carry the results of choices made from previous generations that in turn impact the choices of future generations. What we leave behind contemplates how we allow the future to break through in our present and what we owe to the human and non-human inhabitants that will come after.
Selected artists: Meichen Waxer, Luke Pardy, Corrina Hammond, Mohadese Movahed, Lindsay Lorraine, Hadis Vahidi, Don Portelance, Samantha Harrison and Atheana Pichu.
What we leave behind is on view at the Fort Gallery August 26-October 8. Please join us for an opening reception Friday, August 26 at 7pm.
Gallery hours are Tuesday-Friday, noon-5pm, some Saturdays and Sundays.
