Rock Shop
(October 20-29, 2020)
Anna Leonowens Gallery
Halifax, NS
The works in Rock Shop are visual metaphors for my ongoing examination of contemporary relationships to the natural world – in which possession (of a piece of land, a rock collected on a beach) can be mistaken for belonging, and degradation (mowing a lawn, turning fibers into textiles) can be synonymous with care. Through a literal merging of handwork and natural materials, Rock Shop conjures juxtapositions that point to this futile relationship rooted in continual commodification and consumption.
