L’exposition propose de considérer l’orage comme une métaphore puissante des transformations climatiques qui nous enveloppent. L’atmosphère est saturée : l’orage n’a pas encore éclaté. Et pourtant, tout est tension, vibrant d’attente. L’exposition invite à réfléchir à l’opacité croissante du monde, aux binarités embrouillées de ceux qui détruisent et de ceux qui sont détruits, et à la manière dont l’art peut habiter cette incertitude — lui donner forme, l’incarner, rendre perceptible la lourdeur de l’air. – Cassandra Lesage Fongué Lire la suite du texte (FR &amp; EN) <img width="1920" height="1281" width_o="1920" height_o="1281" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/057c42e60f4c9cc36a0bc319da50414971f788b81eda822d06d5a145f21f8615/AWE-032326-316.jpg" data-mid="248621829" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/057c42e60f4c9cc36a0bc319da50414971f788b81eda822d06d5a145f21f8615/AWE-032326-316.jpg" /><img width="1920" height="1281" width_o="1920" height_o="1281" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/806c90e9ebf217875a137e7ed663217ee85ed9012effac61d195004396efb32a/AWE-032326-351.jpg" data-mid="248621831" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/806c90e9ebf217875a137e7ed663217ee85ed9012effac61d195004396efb32a/AWE-032326-351.jpg" /><img width="1920" height="1281" width_o="1920" height_o="1281" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/43cd816f2c4a7bb547f09df6a75e64b08cbe5e8a9ffd2326cec6568113ac5b53/AWE-032326-364.jpg" data-mid="248621830" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/43cd816f2c4a7bb547f09df6a75e64b08cbe5e8a9ffd2326cec6568113ac5b53/AWE-032326-364.jpg" /><img width="3000" height="2003" width_o="3000" height_o="2003" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5f3f00c65104f6799936884390c922dad0bb83d20bd698c8038796a2e394fdd8/Weather-Sticks-close-web-res.jpg" data-mid="248622161" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5f3f00c65104f6799936884390c922dad0bb83d20bd698c8038796a2e394fdd8/Weather-Sticks-close-web-res.jpg" /> Season Creep, 2024.

Sun prints and sculptural objects act as analog recording devices for atmospheric changes in their vicinity. Overriding the function of wooden vernacular tools used to foretell good and inclement weather, these ersatz weather sticks are scattered among the wild garden’s undergrowth, guiding the experience of looking as their patina changes over time in response to their micro environments.

30 octobre 2022&nbsp; Christi Belcourt, Denis Taman Bradette, Laura Demers, Mariana Lafrance, Kaylee Meyer, Sylvie Pilotte, &amp; Laura St. Pierre Le mot paradis est employé aujourd’hui pour définir un milieu naturel de végétation généreuse, foisonnante de vie et de beauté. Que ce soit une forêt vierge, une île tropicale ou un récif de corail, on se représente un paradis comme un espace dénué de toute intervention humaine. S’il ne reste plus sur Terre aucun lieu qui ne soit contaminé par l’activité humaine, certain.e.s artistes revisitent l’idée d’un paradis à leur façon, et ce terme prend une nouvelle signification dans notre imaginaire. [...] De par leurs œuvres, ces artistes nous invitent à repenser la place de l’humain dans son environnement, et à imaginer diverses manières de reconstruire les paradis du futur au moyen de vestiges d’une nature fragmentée. Rescapés des ravages, les objets trouvés du paradis sont des trésors nous permettant de découvrir des voies de résilience écologique. —Carolina Reis Lire la suite du&nbsp;texte (FR &amp; EN) <img width="7360" height="4912" width_o="7360" height_o="4912" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d5b9e0a9870400882d9c36b3334e79835cb027a5cbf2113406fee782403cc5c2/GALRC27juin2022-063.JPG" data-mid="146624486" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d5b9e0a9870400882d9c36b3334e79835cb027a5cbf2113406fee782403cc5c2/GALRC27juin2022-063.JPG" /> <img width="2560" height="1709" width_o="2560" height_o="1709" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c9cf0e9cbaea5f4f692d8e115ab3709b62cebfedca2c63fe248a23e33ffcf579/GALRC27juin2022-037small.jpg" data-mid="146625346" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c9cf0e9cbaea5f4f692d8e115ab3709b62cebfedca2c63fe248a23e33ffcf579/GALRC27juin2022-037small.jpg" /> <img width="7360" height="4912" width_o="7360" height_o="4912" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2c11c818b4e605ff932afa869a8c1e79203d1f7e8ebe1e3895313e70971f9a2c/GALRC27juin2022-023.JPG" data-mid="146624484" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2c11c818b4e605ff932afa869a8c1e79203d1f7e8ebe1e3895313e70971f9a2c/GALRC27juin2022-023.JPG" /> <img width="7360" height="4912" width_o="7360" height_o="4912" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4d7fd3c2c84362a4bc55d015470e9e9f5e91dc965b256380f1ca9d0babec5c1a/GALRC27juin2022-031.JPG" data-mid="146624485" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4d7fd3c2c84362a4bc55d015470e9e9f5e91dc965b256380f1ca9d0babec5c1a/GALRC27juin2022-031.JPG" /> A certain state of exhaustion, 2019-2022.
