Figure 1 Exhibition
This month and until the end of June, the Learning Zone presents Figure 1. It’s a new exhibition which “engages with the tradition of figurative representation”.
Figure 1 showcases artwork from twelve OCAD University students working in various media and artistic styles to depict the human form.
Approaches range from realistic life painting to the exploration of abstract forms. Some artists chose to focus on expression, gesture, or emotion, while others tackled our relationships to objects, each other and the spaces we occupy.
Francis Tomkins curated Figure 1 and includes works by Misbah Ahmed, Alexandria Boyce, Wil Brask, Will Carpenter, Jisu Lee, Wenting Li, Clara Lynas, Natalie Mark, James Okore, Rem Ross, Brianna Tosswill, and Dalbert Vilarino.
On until June 29

- Wil Brask, Feeling Hot Dysphoria, 2017
- Misbah Ahment & Jisa Lee, Wisdom Tooth, 2016, (right/ left), Brianna Tosswill, Urban Camouflage, 2015 (centre)
