UnCONventional

Nov 13 to 20 | Gallery 100

Opening reception | Nov 13 | 5 to 7 p.m. 

Gallery 100 is pleased to present “UnCONventional,” a BFA group exhibition unconfined to medium and with a passion for storytelling. “UnCONventional” consists of eight artists: Amari Espinoza, Keirya Fales, Ashlee Kaye, Jesus Lizzaraga, Maria Lugo, Gabriela Salazar, Stell Shiverts and Kathy Vo, all exploring themes of storytelling and narrative within each artist's own “subject-focused” characters. Each artist's unique stories and ideas are based on their experiences, hence the importance of sharing their story in this show. The exhibition allows the conveyance and display that each artist possesses different approaches and narrative styles, but is bonded together by the shared storytelling themes in their art. 

“UnCONventional” is a group open to experimentation, fueled by pop culture and driven to create community within fandom spaces and the general public, just like a convention. These artists plan to create an interactive space with participation from the community through a well-known con activity: a stamp collection rally. UnCONventional’s artists, during the duration of the exhibition, will recreate the ambiance characteristic of these spaces, capturing the sense of community with both fellow artists and the audience.

Monday – Thursday | 12 to 5 p.m.

Friday | 12 to 3 p.m.

Closed on weekends and university holidays
