The Art Gallery of Greater Victoria presents Media Art Crosses Terrain open through March 30, 2014 in the AGGV’s LAB Gallery.
Penny McCann’s work spans twenty years and her experimental pieces use a range of formats and gauges, including analog and digital video, super 8 and 16mm film and more recently, hand-processed film techniques to create interior meditations on landscape, memory and time.
The exhibition will continue with work by local artist Richard Raxlen, Montreal-based Isabelle Hayeur, Toronto-based Jon Sasaki and New Hampshire-based Jodie Mack. The works encompass a wide variety of approaches and themes, including Raxlen’s improvisational and evocative hand drawn animations, Hayeur’s powerful examination of our relationship with water, Sasaki’s conceptually-driven performance-for-video, and Mack’s animations of found fabrics that question the role of decoration in daily life.
