Digging a Hole with a Garden Hose- Shelby Charlesworth

My interests lie in the slippage between absence and presence; the ephemeral and fixed. I use porcelain, embroidery, printmaking, textiles, and found objects to create compositions that relate to the temporality and permanence of the body. Tracing spaces once touched, seeking comfort in an absent hand, I ground my work in personal experiences and a […]

Taxidermies (Study) – Julia Hartigan

Because of this, I often focus on everyday subjects, highlighting parts of the day and surroundings often overlooked. I encounter instances in which natural elements interact with the artificial on […]

They Are Watching – Elijah Wells

This series of three paintings “Portals Of My Ancestors” emerged from a residency at the Ledge Gallery in Calgary.
