Katzman Art Projects is excited to feature Shimmering, an exhibition showcasing seven artists from IOTA Studios, a Halifax-based creative agency and art collective.
This exhibition presents a range of disciplines including beading, printmaking, tufting, and photography. The artists use shape-shifting materials from sculpted caribou hair, to illusionistic digital printing. Thematics of drag and destruction span the works, showing the deterioration of ecosystems, illusions, and memories.
This exhibition offers the viewer a new perspective, as you step into the worlds they propose. Iridescent and metallic, these artworks break through their frames proposing a more enduring experience.
