“Places Between” and “Make It. Make Sense.”
January 4 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Two new exhibitions are now on view at the Office of Arts & Culture’s ARTS at King Street Station gallery.
Tammie Dupuis explores the intersections of her heritage as an Indigenous and Western European person in her exhibition, Places Between.
Using both Indigenous and non-Indigenous ways of making and seeing, her work spans several different processes and materials including paper, wood, textiles, glass beads, bone, hair, teeth, canvas, relief print, stamp, and paint. Places Between features over 30 works that explore ideas of visibility/invisibility of the Indigenous body and how it affects her personal visual identity, spiritual recognition/non-recognition of place and family, and didactic work of the reservation system and other assimilationist policies.
Make it. Make Sense. is a collection of photos that are based around artist Antoine Fougere’s childhood and imagination. The installation will feature approximately 20 works including digital and film photographs and video artworks.
Fougere’s goal is for the artworks to spark a conversation with one another and help inspire his community to continue to create.
