Echo Sounding: Liz Miller, Younseal Eum, Huguette Despault May

The exhibition explores the work of three artists who are looking at nautical elements and marine tools as well as repetitive patterning in nature to tell compelling stories. Featuring new work including two site-specific installations, Echo Sounding includes kinetic sculpture, felt assemblages and exquisitely rendered drawings and photographs all focused on our fascination with the sea and its inhabitants. Miller's large-scale felt assemblages are comprised of repeated shapes from historic and contemporary culture; taken out of their typical context, the artist uses them to present a new storyline. Eum's kinetic sculptures transport the viewer to the seas, using the shadows of paper-based materials to create an immersive experience. May's detailed charcoal drawings unravel rope into organic forms, deconstructing a basic piece of nautical gear.
