We’re excited to announce, our next month long exhibit will be a solo show by Montreal based artist
@materialgroup.print ! Join us for the opening on 3/12 at 7pm! More info below:
Leaning towards the concept of living archive, and the ways personal and collective memory is prompted through images being made, held onto, circulated and revisited.
[SOURCE-IMAGE] is a series of silkscreen and photo-based works, featuring quietly unreleased material and new exercises in print by: Material Group.
“Over time, images accumulate meaning not through clarity, but through continued contact” - John Berger.
Rushing on the treadmill at the YMCA, a steep incline with no wireless headphones.
Noticing how the reporting on life in interview format - compressed into highlights - must gloss over the humanity of what is consistent, unremarkable, everyday.
Printmaking and daily life seem to share a deep parallel respect for what is a process.
It’s a relief sometimes, to know that images are not static - simply because we are not static.
Truly identifying with the snail, though never representing them in illustration (online ceramics © was all about the snail logo for a few years, if I remember correctly).
My desire would be to do a whole series on snails. A message centre in the form of daytime television called: Leaf Talk.
When life is giving and our state of mind is inspired, we tend to want to freeze the frameso as not to be reminded of how everything moves so quickly.
A snail would never actually tell us this (it would never make the final edit)!
It’s just the blueprint to another memory.
Works for the exhibition will join the artist in the sky and fit the designated airport
dimension allowance.
:)
On view at Heavy Manners Library from March 12,2026 until April 12,2026.
