Movement and Stillness- 20 PIECES on display at the Bloor-Gladstone Library, May 2024 in collaboration with the Toronto Public Library.
1101 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON M6H 1M7
Exhibition May 2 -May 30, 2024.
This exhibition explores the tension between movement and stillness by using two talisman animals; the soft body and graceful fins of goldfish, and the praying mantis, whose stillness is predatorial, its body architectural. It’s a dichotomy of her experience as a person who sits on many edges: multiple cultures, queerness, and work in a male-dominated field. Watercolor is a medium that traditionally flows and blends. To use it to produce sharp edges, and hard surfaces, pushes the medium into tension.
