The Structure of Smoke
The Structure of Smoke explores artworks that problematize the poetic, structural and political aspects of fire. In a region where wildfires regularly impact our lives and the landscape, The Structure of Smoke gathers together artists to conceptualize our relationship to this challenging force of nature.
This exhibition is co-curated by Melanie O̓Brian and Tania Willard, Director of the Belkin Gallery and UBC Okanagan Gallery, and is presented in collaboration with the UBC Okanagan Gallery and the Morris and Helen Belkin Gallery.
The exhibition brings together works from select artists in the original exhibition run including Amber Frid-Jimenez, Samuel Roy-Bois, Heraa Khan, Jeneen Frei Njootli, Other Sights, Pratchaya Phinthong, Art Hunter, and Susan Point. The Okanagan syilx territory edition of the exhibit includes artists Taylor Baptiste, Andreas Rutkauskas, and Woojae Kim.
