January Opening Reception!

Join us from 6 - 8pm on Friday January 16th for our first opening reception of 2026!

In our Main Gallery, Weather, Window, Echo, Hum by Katherine Pickering unites two interrelated series: Hum, small oil paintings on linen, and Weather Patterns, sewn ink works on cotton. Both series explore abstraction as a material practice grounded in domestic life. In Hum, small geometric abstractions painted at the kitchen table are repeatedly sanded and repainted to reflect sites of extractive industry reclaimed by weather and time. Building on these recursive methods, Weather Patterns examines how ink on cotton, flash-dried in the Okanagan sun, and reassembled into geometric compositions recall the artist’s mother’s quilt making. Together, the series approach abstraction as an embodied practice that values intimacy.

In our Project Gallery, Colour is Correct by Chantal New critically examines the mechanisms of exclusion and control inherent in institutional frameworks. Through drawing, photography, and sculptural installation, Chantal investigates how power operates through order and routine, revealing the quiet violence embedded in everyday systems of governance, labour, and punishment.

Materials such as concrete and copy paper are combined with detailed drawings and photographic images to explore time and visibility as instruments of control. By being attentive to the invisible and ignored, Count is Correct exposes the systems that structure daily life and transforms the act of looking into a powerful gesture of care and resistance.
