JULIAN FORREST – In Isolation
February 24 – April 1, 2023
Opening Reception: Friday, February 24th, 6 – 8pm
A studio is like a bubble or a cave in that, if you want, you can stay hidden away from the world for days and weeks, even months on end. I have spent a lot of time holed up in my studio over the last couple of years – sitting in there, painting and drawing and imagining life outside its walls. I started painting bunkers, lunar landers, suburban bungalows, and other “refuges” that I had read about in books or watched in movies as a child in the ‘70s and ‘80s.
October 22 – December 3, 2022:
Z’otz* Collective | Habits of the Speaking Shadows.
Z’otz* Collective was formed out of a shared interest in collaborative art making. We are three visual artists of Latin American heritage living in Toronto. Drawing is our primary means of expression and is used to respond to each other and to what surrounds us. The direct approach allows us to create idiosyncratic and humorous images that examine migration, transformation and regeneration.
