“It’s a way for him to talk about the political uncertainties and the sort of precariousness that we find ourselves in,” says Kanika Anand, senior curator for Contemporary Calgary. “On one side, it’s for us to be able to observe the landscape within a Canadian context. But it’s also a global overview of what’s happening in the world.”
Visitors can expect a range of mediums from drawings, films and prints to sculpture and installation. The exhibition draws on the vast, serene Canadian outdoors through references of camping and fishing and nostalgic moments shared with family and friends, while also offering an opportunity for deeper contemplation.
