long violence dreamt me west
March 21 to 29 | Northlight Gallery
Opening reception | March 21 | 6 to 9 p.m.
Powerlines and trees connect communities, sharing resources, spreading communication. When the ties between them are cut, only a memory of the bond remains. That memory shifts as it passes from mouth to mouth, malleable as copper, occluding and redefining the original relationship; a story broken from its context and reimagined again and again.
A thought begins in Chinese, is spoken in English. This dislocation echoes throughout the ensuing generations in forms both hopeful and estranging.
Thursday – Saturday | 12 to 5 p.m.
First and third Fridays of the month | 6 to 9 p.m.
Closed Sunday – Wednesday and university holidays

Tones of Saturation
March 21 to 29 | Step Gallery
Opening reception | March 21 | 6 to 9 p.m.
Performances | March 21, 7 p.m. and March 22, 1 and 3 p.m.
“Tones of Saturation” invites us to witness beauty in its fullest spectrum—where grey deepens and lightens simultaneously, dissolving rigid dichotomies. Through movement and sound, seven performers and an experimental composer engage in a visceral inquiry into saturation and distraction, questioning how we navigate a world that often demands absolutes.
At its core, this work explores polarity—not as opposition, but as a dynamic tension that fuels expansion. It asks: Can we inhabit the in-between spaces of life and death, fullness and emptiness, without grasping for certainty? Through the resonance of sound and the tonal intelligence of the body, we seek to unlock new ways of being—liberating ourselves from the structures that confine perception.
Is neutrality in this liminal space possible? And if so, is it a form of peace? Tones of Saturation does not seek to answer but to open—offering an experience where ambiguity itself becomes a place of presence, depth, and freedom.
