BETWEEN HERE AND THERE

Thu May 10 at 7:00 PM
Curated by Leslie Supnet | FREE ADMISSION

Between Here and There showcases experimental works from Asian-Canadian artists dealing with physical and ethereal landscapes, places and spaces, revealing the beauty in structure, both natural and man-made. With a focus on the everyday, these artists foreground what is familiar in such a way for the viewer to look at the tangible world in a different light, mediated by personal history and memory.
