SUMMARY:Exhibition: Speak No (emergency) by Persimmon Blackbridge
DESCRIPTION:January 18 – March 23\nExhibition: Speak No (emergency) by Persimmon Blackbridge\nRichmond Art Gallery\n7700 Minoru Gate\nOpening Reception: January 18\, 2pm-4pm\nArtwork by Donation Giveaway: March 23 ( https://www.richmondartgallery.org/give-away )\nIn this stunning installation\, artist Persimmon Blackbridge urgently responds to the devastation of and despair around climate change. Covering the gallery walls with dozens of handfashioned figures\, she creates a desolate\, desperate army who have come together in the face of rampant forest fires\, polluted oceans\, and climate denial. Blackbridge’s raw\, frenetic aesthetic integrates found wood\, Barbie doll parts\, bits of animal bone\, scrap metal\, and other recycled materials typically considered trash.\nWebsite: https://www.richmondartgallery.org/speaknoemergency\nGeorgia Straight: https://www.straight.com/arts/richmond-art-gallery-opens-2025-by-highlighting-climate-and-plastic-issues\nPancouver Article: https://pancouver.ca/richmond-art-gallerys-dear-plastic-exhibition-reflects-on-a-ubiquitous-and-inescapable-material/

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Dear Plastic
DESCRIPTION:January 18 – March 23\nExhibition: Dear Plastic\nRichmond Art Gallery\n7700 Minoru Gate\nOpening Reception: January 18\, 2pm-4pm\nArtwork by Ari Bayuaji\, Emily Hermant\, Caroline Monnet\, Alex Tedlie-Stursberg\, and Cheryl Wong. Curated by Zoë Chan. The five featured artists of Dear Plastic straddle the divide between what is considered artificial versus natural in their engagement with plastic. They clearly delight in the potential of plastic as artistic material\, which they reuse\, repurpose\, or reimagine to fashion visually arresting works. The thought-provoking pieces in this exhibition avoid a simple environmentalist stance or nostalgia for untouched landscapes.\nWebsite: https://www.richmondartgallery.org/dear-plastic\nGeorgia Straight: https://www.straight.com/arts/richmond-art-gallery-opens-2025-by-highlighting-climate-and-plastic-issues\nPancouver Article: https://pancouver.ca/richmond-art-gallerys-dear-plastic-exhibition-reflects-on-a-ubiquitous-and-inescapable-material/
