Exploring Care, Three-Part Exhibition Series
Part 1: The Aesthetic of Silence
March 6 to May 15
Artists: Shelley Vanderbyl and Lam Wong
Curated by Jenelle M. Pasiechnik
This three part group exhibition aims to explore the relationship between the ethics of taking care, taking care as related to art practices and professions, prioritizing the self, and the fatigue that results from community members sharing their experiences, and educating the public. The aim of the exhibition is to create a space of safety and knowledge, where people feel welcome to share their experiences and connect with others around issues pertinent to mental and physical well being.
