Two Rivers Gallery is hosting an opening reception for its new exhibition, which explores memory and feeling through movement.
Called Limbinal Mappings, Scotland-based Prince George artist, Gwynne Bilski’s textile maps become the backdrop for dance performances as well as the site for personal explorations of place.
Bilski grew up in Prince George, where she took great interest in the feeling of nature surrounding us.
Limbinal Mappings embodies our interactions with space and asks us to consider our relationship to our surroundings. Bilski maps those interactions on fabric using ink, acrylic, and fibre. Focusing on her memories of moving through place, rather than topographical accuracy, the resulting maps are representations of experiences as much as they are maps.
Performances by Method Dance Society will take place over the course of the exhibition starting on opening night. Upcoming performance dates will be confirmed. A musical composition by Duncan Bowers (Syntheatrics) accompanies the exhibition.
The opening reception will be held on Thursday, Oct. 5 at 7:30 p.m. in the Galleria. Light refreshments will be available for visitors of the exhibit to enjoy, as well as a QR code for visitors to scan and experience the soundscape from their personal devices.
Limbinal Mappings will be at Two Rivers Gallery from Oct. 5 to Dec. 10.
