Exhibition: Aporia (Notes to a Medium) at The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery, University of British Columbia Vancouver, BC Dates: January 12 to April 14, 2024 Artists: Colleen Brown, Azza El Siddique, Dani Gal, Katie Kozak and Lucien Durey, Mark Lewis, Jenine Marsh, Jalal Toufic, Elizabeth Zvonar, curated by Melanie O’Brian Information: Aporia (Notes to a Medium) considers how history, mythology and wishful thinking entwine across media and through mediums. In this moment where faith in media, government and institutions is further collapsing, where binarization is on the rise, where expressions of doubt are tactical, this exhibition includes artists’ works that contend with systems of belief and perception to trouble truth’s material (and immaterial) forms
