PROTECTIVE RELAYS window installation by AARON MURPHY July 10th to August 9th, 2020, all hours. Watch the artist install the work: Friday July 10th after 5pm/ Saturday July 11th after 10am/ Sunday July 12th after 10am Protective Relays is an installation comprised of two cameras aimed at two different photographs and a televsion on which the images have been combined to create a digitized montage. Each camera is controlled by a micro-computer that relays video data through a closed network to a third computer that amalgamates the feeds for the television screen. Because the cameras are “live”, the montage on the television flutters and vibrates when their attached sensors and computers attempt to compensate for changes in the surrounding light caused by time of day and passing shadows.

KIMBERLY PAPP Oblivious Follies INGRID MAYRHOFER Bird bowls and Flower plates Oct 9 – Nov 8, 2020
More than ever, we flock together, sharing an on-line culture shaped by Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, YouTube, Instagram, Reddit, Tumblr, TikTok and more. The result? Flamboyant self-absorption. Like a flurry of birds — the ultimate social network. Every one revelling in his or her unique plumage. Each demanding to be seen and heard — undisciplined, exuberant, delightfully chaotic. Kim Papp
I intend to create a visual tension between forms that suggests the comfort of shelter or food, and a content that represents remnants of humankind’s intervention against nature…imagery references species that are listed as extinct, extirpated, endangered, threatened or vulnerable in Canada. Pottery is said to be the most common find at archaeological sites…shards of my pots may well endure the next great extinction. Ingrid Mayrhofer
