Graduate Gallery - telling and retelling: acts of iteration
The idea of iteration is indicative of process becoming practice. It is documenting, collecting, compiling. Watching the seed root and grow. Doing the thing, again, doing it differently, learning from it and yourself. Iteration is confrontation, contemplation, and embodiment. This exhibition encourages slow, playful, and deep looking within and outside of the grid to see the patterns of iteration, and the methods employed by each artist towards visual synergy.

Onsite Gallery - On Americanity and Other Experiences of Belonging
Centered around the notion of “Americanity'' and what it stands for today. This concept has been historically and generally used to name a shared cultural belonging to the American continent. Yet, does Americanity imply the same whether a person lives in Bacatá (Bogotá), Tiohtiá:ke/Mooniyang (Montréal), or Tsi Tkarón:to (Toronto), and whether they were born in Abya-Yala (America) or on another continent?
