*** Moterwerks 8 ***

- Entropika -

An Exhibition of a new iconography by Andrew Bell.

Following 2007's Moterwerks 7: Mechanology, Bell's sophisticated portraiture pause,
the new works in Entropika are playful in their pop imagery. With taches of primary colour
and a tactical use of repetition, Bell's new iconography is imbued with the spirit of the cultural
icon of the pin-up girl.

As primary visuals, The Moterwerks 'Artwerks' are presented as historical icons -- mural relics from an alternate time. A fusion of propaganda imagery and mass media advertising, the result is reminiscent of both science fiction and antiquated past.

*** Here and also elsewhere ***

An Exhibition of a new paintings by Monica Tap.

Monica Tap has based her paintings of the last few years upon stills extracted
from low-resolution video, captured using the video feature on her digital still
camera. Her paintings are rooted in her experience as a commuter watching
the landscape whip by through the windows of buses, cars and trains.
Brushstrokes trace and amplify the pixels of the still, giving the impression
that the paint is pulled across the canvas by sheer speed. For this new body
of work Tap has added the ephemeral changes of the seasons to her
investigations of the fleeting moments of time and light.

*** The Shape of Memory ***

An Exhibition of a new paintings by Marija Barac Jandric.

Marija Barac Jandric’s work comes from observing the natural world. In her new series
of oil paintings titled The Shape of Memory, Jandric examines the relationship between memory and images of nature. Special interest is paid to the way in which the most elusive natural elements such as light, color, movement, and atmosphere, are tied to our deepest emotional experiences. Jandric applies layer upon layer of paint to her canvases, both transparent and opaque, with some shapes clearly defined while others are fused together or blurry. For her, this process mimics the way that memory is collected and deposited in our psyche. The resulting images evoke the feelings of a familiar place or a moment in time.

Marija Barac Jandric was born in Bosnia Herzegovina, moving to Canada in 1986. Marija graduated with honors from OCAD in 1996, she also holds a degree in Engineering from University of Zagreb, Croatia. Marija lives and works as a professional exhibiting artist, and art educator in Toronto.

*** The Konokol ***

- Sound and Reflection, 2010 -

An Exhibition of compositions by David Urban.

"The world --our experience of the world-- is both real and abstract. I attempt to paint it that way."

- David Urban

David Urban has created a canvas of monumental proportions. In The Konokol: Sound and
Relfection
, he explores an Indian rhythmic system which employs an arrangement of syllables
to communicate rhythmic ideas. The triptych reflects a meditation on music, childhood and imagination, becoming a summation of previous thematic ideas pursued by the artist.

*** Status Update ***

- MVS Curatorial Studies Graduating -

An Exhibition of a compositions by Annie Onyi Cheung, Melanie Lowe, Robert Lendrum
and Matthew Williamson, Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins,
and Cheryl Sourkes.

Within the last five years, online social networking and communication technologies have
undergone a period of explosive growth. In light of the development of Web 2.0, communication, how we represent ourselves, and our sense of subjectivity have been profoundly modified. In response to these paradigmatic shifts, the artists included in Status Update investigate how and why we interface with technology, and what promises, failures, and desires might be at stake as we invest ourselves in these mediated and mediating relationships.

Melanie Lowe's You Saw Me? (2008) and Cheryl Sourkes' BRB (Be Right Back) (2010),
both invoke the gaze of the implied Other, the presence we imagine lurks behind the screen
and lens, to which we offer ourselves in narcissistic identity formation and postmodern vulnerability. Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins' Presence Meter (2003) confronts viewers with
the physical and symbiotic relationship to a technological body and the pleasurable affirmation
of being recognized. Annie Onyi Cheung's Skype-based performance project NOW.LIMINAL (2008) and Robert Lendrum and Matthew Williamson's new media and performance-based work Avatar 2.0 (2010), generate interactive spaces for techno-social experimentation and observation. As each of these artists turn a questioning eye on our relationships to the technological trappings of the everyday, they uncover the basic and persistent human desires to escape isolation
and to reach for a validating sense of connection.

Curated by Shauna Thompson.

Co-produced by InterAccess Electronic Media Arts Centre.
