SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - SOLÈNE CHATAIN | Abandoned Hands
DESCRIPTION:Exploring what we make by hand\, what we build through technology\, and what we leave behind\, Solène Chatain’s ceramic sculptures reflect on the complex relationships between human ingenuity\, industry\, technology\, and the natural world. Handbuilt and carved ceramic forms are combined with discarded fragments of rusted machinery gathered from beaches\, forests\, and industrial sites\, transforming remnants of human industry into objects of contemplation. Through these sculptures\, Chatain explores the tension between holding on and letting go\, between progress and consequence\, between the handmade and the technological. \nJoin us for the Opening Reception on Sat. Aug. 29th\, 2pm – 4pm; and for an Artist Demo on Sun. Sept. 20th\, 2pm – 3pm. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - MINDY HEMSTALK | The Impossibility of Beauty
DESCRIPTION:In The Impossibility of Beauty\, Mindy Hemstalk gathers driftwood\, broken ceramic fragments\, and unaltered natural materials from the traditional\, unceded\, and ancestral territories of the shíshálh Nation\, assembling them into shrine‑like forms that honour the wild intelligence of the land. These works emerge from an intense personal journey of rupture and rebirth\, shaped by the realization that the dominant cultural definitions of beauty rooted in colonial and patriarchal paradoxes are impossible by design; demanding women be sovereign yet caged\, expressive yet silent\, sensual yet contained. \nAn exhibition on display in Joe’s Lounge. Join us for the Opening Reception on Saturday\, August 29th\, 2pm – 4pm. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - MINDY HEMSTALK | The Impossibility of Beauty
DESCRIPTION:In The Impossibility of Beauty\, Mindy Hemstalk gathers driftwood\, broken ceramic fragments\, and unaltered natural materials from the traditional\, unceded\, and ancestral territories of the shíshálh Nation\, assembling them into shrine‑like forms that honour the wild intelligence of the land. These works emerge from an intense personal journey of rupture and rebirth\, shaped by the realization that the dominant cultural definitions of beauty rooted in colonial and patriarchal paradoxes are impossible by design; demanding women be sovereign yet caged\, expressive yet silent\, sensual yet contained. \nAn exhibition on display in Joe’s Lounge. Join us for the Opening Reception on Saturday\, August 29th\, 2pm – 4pm. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - SOLÈNE CHATAIN | Abandoned Hands
DESCRIPTION:Exploring what we make by hand\, what we build through technology\, and what we leave behind\, Solène Chatain’s ceramic sculptures reflect on the complex relationships between human ingenuity\, industry\, technology\, and the natural world. Handbuilt and carved ceramic forms are combined with discarded fragments of rusted machinery gathered from beaches\, forests\, and industrial sites\, transforming remnants of human industry into objects of contemplation. Through these sculptures\, Chatain explores the tension between holding on and letting go\, between progress and consequence\, between the handmade and the technological. \nJoin us for the Opening Reception on Sat. Aug. 29th\, 2pm – 4pm; and for an Artist Demo on Sun. Sept. 20th\, 2pm – 3pm. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - MINDY HEMSTALK | The Impossibility of Beauty
DESCRIPTION:In The Impossibility of Beauty\, Mindy Hemstalk gathers driftwood\, broken ceramic fragments\, and unaltered natural materials from the traditional\, unceded\, and ancestral territories of the shíshálh Nation\, assembling them into shrine‑like forms that honour the wild intelligence of the land. These works emerge from an intense personal journey of rupture and rebirth\, shaped by the realization that the dominant cultural definitions of beauty rooted in colonial and patriarchal paradoxes are impossible by design; demanding women be sovereign yet caged\, expressive yet silent\, sensual yet contained. \nAn exhibition on display in Joe’s Lounge. Join us for the Opening Reception on Saturday\, August 29th\, 2pm – 4pm. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: GPAG - SOLÈNE CHATAIN | Abandoned Hands
DESCRIPTION:Exploring what we make by hand\, what we build through technology\, and what we leave behind\, Solène Chatain’s ceramic sculptures reflect on the complex relationships between human ingenuity\, industry\, technology\, and the natural world. Handbuilt and carved ceramic forms are combined with discarded fragments of rusted machinery gathered from beaches\, forests\, and industrial sites\, transforming remnants of human industry into objects of contemplation. Through these sculptures\, Chatain explores the tension between holding on and letting go\, between progress and consequence\, between the handmade and the technological. \nJoin us for the Opening Reception on Sat. Aug. 29th\, 2pm – 4pm; and for an Artist Demo on Sun. Sept. 20th\, 2pm – 3pm. All are welcome!
