About the Exhibition

Marisa Mary Myrah – On the Edge of Where I Live

Painting by Marisa Mary Myrah

This collection by Marisa Mary Myrah describes a section of land adjacent to where she lives in Lynn Valley, North Vancouver, that is slated for development. It is a pristine area of old growth forest within a residential area, so unique that the artist wanted to document and describe this landscape through her art before it is gone.

 

Yasmeen Strang – Winters Hotel: A Sense of Place

This exhibit began as a documentary exploration chronicling the early footsteps of a friend’s family who immigrated to Canada in the 1960s and settled at the Winters Hotel. The project quickly evolved into a deeper and larger conversation when Strang gained entry into the building and access to its intimate and personal spaces.

 

Vancouver Community College – Jewellery Art and Design Graduates exhibit

The exhibition will also feature work by from Daisy Lee, Max Thompson, Meygol Rashidi, and Rhyleah Hylands-Paszana; students from Vancouver Community College’s Jewellery Arts and Design Program.
