Start Somewhere Else: Works from the Collection
June 17 to August 14
Curated by Melanie O’Brian and Krista Belle Stewart, Start Somewhere Else centres around Krista Belle Stewart's video installation Seraphine, Seraphine (2015) to consider doubling – and duplicities – in personal and historical narratives. Through an interest in the archive and how stories are told between the individual and institutional, Stewart's practice takes up the complexities of intention and interpretation made possible by archival material. The exhibition puts Seraphine, Seraphine into dialogue with other works in the collection by Marian Penner Bancroft, Rebecca Belmore, Judith Copithorne, Audrey Capel Doray, Whess Harman, Brian Jungen, Rita Letendre, Ken Lum, Salar Mameni, Melinda Mollineaux, Marianne Nicolson and Althea Thauberger, Jeneen Frei Njootli, Jerry Pethick, Innukjuakju Pudlat, Skeena Reece, Joyce Wieland and Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun.
