Coming Next
Alysa Schwan, (outdoor Installation) & Sylvie Roussel-Janssen, (Indoor Exhibit)
July 5 – July 30
Reception: Thursday, July 6, 7-9pm
Alyssa Schwann creates temporary installations using string or by clearing human debris in the forest to record the felling of a tree or reveal the relationships of the branches to the parent trunks. Her three dimensional drawings delineate connections between trees and logs which at first appear to have no relationship between them.
Sylvie Roussel-Janssens’ sustainable art practice in sculpture melds embroidery and environmental concerns. The plastic debris she uses as material was gathered in the Fraser Valley during the pandemic. “Stitching is healing. If we can make small gesture of repair, perhaps we can have the courage to fix our broken world.”
