| 3/22/2025 -5/10/2025 | Penticton Art Gallery March Exhibition Opening and Community Artwalk to Kick Off the 4th Annual Ignite the Arts Festival Main Gallery: This exhibition is part of Tsuneko Kokubo’s lifelong artistic journey weaving in the recently documenting bodies of water in the Kootenays/Boundary region near former Japanese Canadian internment sites. At each site, she created preliminary sketches that evolved into two monumental studio works. These large-scale canvases will be the centerpiece of a larger installation, complemented by a selection of recent and older water-themed pieces, reflecting her enduring exploration of water as a flow of consciousness, memory, and intuition in her practice. 2) Toni Onley Gallery: Script is a collection of works involving scavenging materials, tracing objects, spilling ink and tearing, piercing and hanging paper. It`s about letting things fall apart and become themselves. It`s about everything as writing, even what seems unreadable. 3) Project Room Gallery: Alexandra Bischoff's installation, Homesick, reveals a hidden chapter of her family’s history, centered on "The Truth Tapes," the unusual business that bankrupted her grandfather in 1967. As his life and business fell apart, her mother’s family was uprooted and homelessness in the late 1960s. This persistent instability and disconnection from place continue to affect both immediate and extended family. Drawing from family archives, Bischoff critically examines colonial notions of homemaking, a pressing topic as Canada’s housing markets become increasingly inaccessible. Through Homesick, she explores whether her conceptions of 'home' are inherited and questions how, as a settler, her desire for a specific kind of 'home' may uphold the colonial myth that these lands are available for the taking. 4) Community Space: Rika is the designer of this year's Ignite the Arts Poster, and we are thrilled to showcase a selection of his creative work in our Community Space. Poster design is Rick's true passion, a beautiful fusion of art and design, whether through silkscreen, digital, or giclée prints. His ever-growing poster collection, spanning from Japanese subway designs to vintage rock screen prints, reflects his deep love for the medium. Through his personal practice, Rick aims to bring greater value and appreciation to the natural world, contributing to its preservation as wild, free, and protected spaces. more info... |
