Lost Foundry/Fukushima Rising opens February 4th in Victoria
Artists Jeremy Borsos and Lance Olsen join with curator Sue Donaldson for the temporary exhibition project LOST FOUNDRY/FUKUSHIMA RISING. This collaborative project in an 8,000 sq.ft. former fitness gym that shut down in 2019 features Lance Olsen’s Fukushima Rising site-specific sound composition and suite of acrylic and oil pastel paintings in conjunction with the watery diorama of Jeremy Borsos’ massive Lost Foundry installation.
In Lost Foundry Borsos offers a 38-foot reconstructed portion of the 19th C. Victoria Foundries Ltd. building façade, through which gallery goers view the diorama. Acquired by the artist in 1997 when the building was demolished, the red foundry walls with their white IRON BRASS ALUMINIUM CASTING lettering look out onto Victoria’s Upper Harbour through floor-to-ceiling glass.
