A!R Exhibition- scores for failed structures of the private by Eve Tagny

Eve Tagny is a Tiohti:àke/Montreal-based artist. Her practice considers gardens and disrupted landscapes as mutable sites of personal and collective memory inscribed with the dynamics of power, colonial histories, and their legacies. 

scores for failed structures of the private, a new body of work created while in residence at Ace Hotel Toronto, explores how concepts of private ownership and privacy are foundational to Western racialized notions of the civilized, modern human being. Through gestures and embodied expressions, Eve calls this underpinning into question: how do these fraught foundations predetermine our relationships to nature, labor, sustenance and intimacy in urbanized spaces?

This exhibition is a part of our year-long partnership with Images Festival.
