April 10 – May 12, 2010 Opening Reception ‘presage’ is a series of new paintings in raw pigment powder with acrylic, graphite and pastel on wood by Vancouver artist, Siobhan Humston. Humston's new work deals with various elements of the natural world such as the coral reef and honey bees that are under threat, exploring aspects of its fragility as well as its resilience. Her new use of ground pigments mixed with acrylic medium is an alchemy of sorts, combining these components to build and create work that portrays both beauty and breakdown. . Siobhan Humston received her BFA from the Crawford College of Art and Design in Cork, Ireland. Since moving to Vancouver in 2001, she has exhibited extensively with public, artist-run and commercial galleries in Vancouver, the Okanagan, Calgary, Toronto, Los Angeles and Zurich. Her paintings are in public, private and corporate collections throughout North American, Britain, Europe and Australia. |

July 17 - August 14, 2010 An ongoing series of photographs that depict urban edge conditions and built environments throughout the world. In the course of Western architecture and urbanism there is a long history attached to the Ideal, Visionary and the Fantastic as notions to create built space. Inspired by David Burdeny's personal experiences as a traveler the images serve to illustrate the often unpredictable link between intention and perception - implying that memory and experience play significant roles in our ability to perceive and thus give meaning to the world around us. The images are photographed with an 8”x10” view camera and printed as chromogenic color prints. Transmounted to Plexiglas the photographs are printed large - thereby welcoming the viewer to experience them from afar and at nose length.
