SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: Gibsons Public Art Gallery - AMY DYCK | Portals to Elsewhere
DESCRIPTION:Pulling from the artist’s lived experience with disability and difficulty\, this exhibition in the Main Gallery is filled with creatures that are nuanced and strange\, broken and fierce\, and filled with conflicting layers that make up the whole of who they are. Mixed media sculptures\, drawings\, oil paintings\, and collage are used to create figures evolving through time\, existing in a wild place where strange beings can stretch their legs\, escape\, belong\, or find their place in the world. \nJoin us for the Opening Reception on Saturday\, January 17th\, 2pm – 4pm. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: Gibsons Public Art Gallery - BOISMIER\, LOGAN\, TAYLOR | Three Ways Home
DESCRIPTION:A dynamic\, multifaceted portrait of Sunshine Coast life in the Eve Smart Gallery\, sparking conversation and reflection on memory\, environment\, and interpretation. United by place but distinct in perspective\, each artist offers a unique interpretation of the Sunshine Coast’s iconic landscapes. Eva Taylor’s vivid acrylic landscapes capture the Coast’s energy and colour\, Matthew Boismier’s evocative watercolours reflect the emotional tone of the environment\, and Cambria Logan’s high contrast minimalism and use of a variety of mediums lend themselves to the creation of striking sculptural works. Together\, these artists invite viewers to explore how a shared subject can be transformed through three artistic lenses. \nJoin us for the Opening Reception on Saturday\, January 17th\, 2pm – 4pm!
