Stardust - Iconic Motels Architectural Models Anna Carey

Anna Carey focuses on architectural spaces as a medium to open up an imaginative realm for the viewer, inviting us to enter into the shadows of our stories and of collective memory. Her recent archive of iconic ‘Stardust’ motels from across Australia and the Americas present tandem versions – both as they were ‘then’, and now revamped. The artist constructs fragile cardboard architectural models, which she documents as video and photographs to express and access a psychological sensibility beyond the physical façades presented. The artifice is intensified as in a game of Chinese whispers where the original gets lost in the re-imagining imbuing her photographs with a nostalgic, cinematic reverie. 

Artereal Gallery 2 March - Apr. 2

On View: Winnie Truong’s “Invisible/Visible” at Erin Stump Projects

Toronto-based artist Winnie Truong (featured on the cover of Hi-Fructose Vol. 22) began drawing unruly, prolific hair as a way to interrogate Western beauty standards. As her body of work evolved, her depictions of hair became more sculptural and intricate. Hair became the medium to test the bounds of form and line. Her latest colored pencil drawings place more emphasis on the abstract arrangements of waves and curls than on the hairstyle’s wearer. Truong’s current solo show, “Invisible/Visible” is on view at Erin Tump Projects in Toronto through December 20.
