I.O.U. is a curatorial project developed by Kalli Niedoba, bringing together works by Steven Brekelmans, Colleen Heslin, Devon Knowles, Ben Raymer, Ian Robert Sandilands and Frieda-raye Green.
The works selected for this exhibition have been floating together, basely tied to a dock not far from here, somewhere in the Strait of Georgia. During the months leading to installation, research develops and findings become treatment to each and all the works. Meanwhile, the original material integrity and palpable referents of these works are, in turn, reduced to unknowable gradations. The murky beams of sunlight yield a soft stain; the efforts of those careful-minded hands slightly erode away and are torn apart.
The physical works will be accompanied by a video by Frieda-raye Green, screening nightly in the front window of 15 East Pender.
