Kin

Exhibition of thesis work by Sheri Nault presented in the Special Projects Gallery at York University, Toronto from April 10 to 14, 2017.

This work crosses mediums to explore the boundary between the human and non-human, to elicit a different sense of where the boundaries of the human lie; a reframing which is not only ecologically urgent, but suggests a reframing of dichotomic power structures as well. The current ecological state of the world is a source of great anxiety, as we near and cross more and more ‘points of no return.’ What seems to be missing is a sense of kinship, a sense of how fundamentally interconnected human lives and the life of the planet are.
