Digging a Hole with a Garden Hose- Shelby Charlesworth

I use porcelain, embroidery, printmaking, textiles, and found objects to create compositions that relate to the temporality and permanence of the body.

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.
