Discovery: Balance

January 7 – 28, 2017

Our annual ‘Discovery’ juried exhibition provides exposure to emerging artists. Juried by artist M.A.Tateishi, arts instructor Janet Wang (The Art Institute of Vancouver), and Seymour Art Gallery’s curator/director Sarah Cavanaugh, this year’s exhibition reflects the theme: BALANCE. The artists present work that is as varied as their backgrounds in this fresh and eclectic show, which includes drawing, painting, ceramics, mixed media, fibre art, video, and photography.

One artist will be presented with the Carole Badgley Emerging Artist Award, with a cash prize of $300 furnished by the gallery; honourable mentions will receive prizes donated by Opus Art Supplies and Kroma Acrylics.

Artists: Fran Alexander, EJ An, Adele Maskwa-iskwew Arseneau, Shawn Becker, Marnie Boullard, Francine Drouin, Karen Evans, Marcelle Glock, Jenna Hardy, Jenny Hawkinson, Cath Hughes, Diane Isherwood, Lu Iz, Lisa Klepak, Thom Harvey Kline, Janna Kumi, Geri Lenic, Clarissa Long, Galit Mastai, Candice Okada, Barbara Pearson, Lori Popadiuk, Jennifer Pride, Charlotte Spafford, Robin Timms, Dominique Walker, and Amanda Wood.

Reception and Awards Ceremony: Sunday, January 8, 2 p.m.
