Ward’s Island Gallery Boxes, Toronto, Canada.
Observations on the changing nature of connection/disconnection are created by three artists using process-based approaches to investigate aspects of imposed isolation on the psyche, landscapes, and interactions. Claudette Abrams contemplates the cessation of air travel using digitally extracted negative space. Anthea Baxter-Page mirrors lockdown with vintage Holga images of unpopulated tourist destinations. Berkley J Abrams Page uses a photo-based approach to explore human disconnection in various forms. Exhibited outdoors as a collective of individual freestanding vitrines around Ward’s Island; the context expands conceptually into physical spaces of both isolation and openness, containment and accessibility.
The exhibition will be presented virtually and in person. Each week in May (2021) the three vitrine galleries will rotate a new work by each artist from the exhibition. All works available to view online as well are available to purchase in multiple editions and various sizes. View the possibilities here.
