The Vernon Public Art Gallery is once again open to the public.
And the centre is opening with two new exhibitions that reflect landscape, memory and nature.
In the main gallery, Kelsey Stephenson’s flux consists of printed silk veils suspended from the ceiling. “Visitors will be able to navigate this unique environment while listening to a soundtrack recorded at the different locations where Stephenson collected her source imagery,” said VPAG curator Lubos Culen.
“Kelsey’s installation deals with landscape and memory, examining the impact that location has on humans, while also looking at the impressions that people create on the landscape around them.”
Stephenson is an Edmonton-based print artist with an extensive exhibition record in Canada and internationally.
Opening in the VPAG’s Caroline Galbraith Gallery is the exhibition Full Spectrum, by Vernon-based artist Christine Kashuba.
Full Spectrum consists of cyanotype prints, a photographic printing process that results in a cyan blue and white print, and shows mainly landscape forms complemented by the samples of Okanagan flora.
“With her prolific studio practice, Kashuba moves between landscape, figurative, and still life genres, and often includes botanical subject matter in her work,” Culen said.
