Plot January 16 — March 8, 2026 Opening Reception: Friday, January 16, 6–9PM Bothkinds Project Space, 602 E Hastings St, Vancouver Plot presents a cross generational dialogue between Kari Fisher and Isaac Forsland, whose practices have unfolded alongside one another for the past two years. Each artist has followed their own thematic interests while exchanging ideas, gathering plants together, and exploring new mediums. Plot gestures to the mapped histories of home, ‘life cycles’ and gardening, forming the evolving story of collaboration and experimentation between mother and son. Plant material sits at the centre of the exhibition. It informs the work by threading material and memory together, from creating an eco-developer for the collaborative film to framing Fisher’s cyanotype floor plan prints of forty-four houses. Plot brings these explorations into one place, marking the culmination of two years of shared exploration and material exchange.

Our student show is on display at Bothkinds Project Space as of today! This exhibition features a selection of students’ artworks from Emily Carr University of Art + Design’s drawing and illustration program, and the University of British Columbia’s post-graduate architecture program, that explore animal-human relations in the city and related ecologies. These art & design projects emerge from courses taught by Fawn Daphne Plessner (ECUAD) and Thena Tak (UBC) that invited students to explore new ways to understand and live with non-human beings in urban spaces, and more widely, to illuminate related ecological problems. The ‘Near Dwellers as Indwellers’ exhibition program and guest speaker series also helped shape core themes within the curriculum for Emily Carr students, from which the students took inspiration. Opening Reception is next Friday, December 12th at 5:30pm - 9:00pm Check out some of the students whose work will be on view for this exhibition: Athena Poelzer: @athelzer Emily Cameron: @forrestt_elf Huda Akbar: @hudaakbardesigns Isabelle Jarman: @Issi_illustrates Ruvé Staneke: @ruve.luarna Yasaman Khalili: @yasamankhalili @ Bothkinds Project Space 602 E.

Please join us next week at @bothkinds Project Space, let's chat about your relationship with water, with the sea. exhibition link in bio

Convening Bodies is a relational and creative research residency that brings artists and practitioners from different disciplines to gather near water, focusing on expanding engagement with how we relate to water environments, marine life, and one another; exploring how situated studies can mediate an ecology of care and inform creative practice. Greatly looking forward to expanding the conversation @bothkinds Project Space in Vancouver with @treemuseumprojects this coming week.

A big hug and thank you to Julie Andreyev for her captivating performance of Crow Stone Tone Poem at Bothkinds Artists Project Space in Vancouver last Saturday! Following a Q&A where Julie shared stories of her relationship with her neighbouring crows, and insights about her artistic process, and the wider complexities of living with undomesticated animals in the city, she performed to a full house. For more information, see Julie’s Instagram account, @multispecies.studio , and her website

I was lucky to attend @multispecies.studio beautiful performance of ‘Crow Stone Tone Poem’ at @bothkinds on Saturday. This is a drawing of the full performance. One that responded to Julie’s movements and the environment she created throughout the show. #bothkindsprojectspace #julieandreyev #performance #drawingperformance #drawing #livedrawing

Doing a sound check for Crow Stone Tone Poem! Super excited to have a premiere of the performance today, 3:30pm at Bothkinds Project Space, 602 East Hastings. We'll start with a conversation between myself and exhibition curator Daphne Plessner, then the performance from my new score edition, followed by an interactive session with the instruments. The last images are of the first edition riso prints of the score 🎉

Next Tuesday, guest speakers Misty MacDuffee and Doug LaFortune will discuss the importance of salmon as a keystone species, and the state of salmon and their migrational waterways that are impacted by urbanization. Misty MacDuffee is a salmon biologist and her research charts the condition of salmon and their wellbeing in the Fraser Delta region, and salmon-bearing watersheds of the BC coast. Doug LaFortune will share his insights on the importance of salmon as essential to human and more-than-human life within WSANEC tradition and culture and within his own artwork. Everyone is welcome to join the conversation. This conversation will be online only. You can find details through the link in our bio. or visit: tree-museum/guest-speakers or Tuesday November 11 1:30 - 3:00 pm Join Zoom Meeting https://emilycarru.zoom.us/j/61212885875?pwd=o8mfBe7k5nNMoxkaKPAiTCjbiUsU86.1 Meeting ID: 612 1288 5875 Passcode: 849346
