🗣 We have completed the installation of Jaspal Birdi's work 11h02m, her first public artwork in Vancouver, and for Capture Photography Festival. See Birdi's 11h02m located at Lansdowne Station. It is one of two amazing artworks on the Canada Line stations presented by Richmond Art Gallery in partnership with the Capture Festival, City of Richmond Public Art and the Canada Line Public Art Program. ⭐️ JASPAL BIRDI 11h02m 🗓 April 1, 2023 - February 29, 2024 🌎 Lansdowne Station In 2020, Jaspal Birdi had been working on an art residency in Milan, Italy, when news of lockdowns began circulating. So she had to pursue her work in Toronto. Often working in both countries, Birdi is used to living in between places. The pandemic, however, put a twist on her otherwise mobile life. 11h02m was first shown in Birdi’s 2020 exhibition, Can I Play Outside. In this work, Birdi draws us back to this time of isolation, when she simultaneously felt a sense of helplessness and an elevated state of creativity, while struggling with feelings of confinement, longing, and hope. The sameness of looking at the sky every day gave Birdi a sense of separation from those she longed to be with. However, seeing the clouds move collectively also gave her a sense of being among a community and the hope that the world would move on from the crisis together.
