SUMMARY:Samantha Walrod: Off The Beaten Path
DESCRIPTION:Newzones is thrilled to present Off the Beaten Path\, an upcoming solo exhibition of new work by Albertan contemporary artist Samantha Walrod. \nOff the Beaten Path considers how humans view and interact with wildlife in the Canadian wilderness from a “close” distance. Motorists and hikers observe animals from cars and trails while the animals watch in return. Bears\, elk\, and wolves are depicted on the edge of the wilderness\, adjacent to roads and thoroughfares\, visible to humans before disappearing onto paths less accessible to human transportation. Walrod’s artwork represents a fleeting moment of human/animal interaction while observing the essential but shrinking distance between human/animal habitats. \nSamantha Walrod’s work is influenced by similarities and differences between imagined and reconstructed environments. She uses many layers of paint\, collage\, photography and inks\, as tactility is a very important element of her practice. Images are incorporated with collage and digital technologies\, while maintaining the exploration of paint. In reconstructing disparate images from various sources including art history\, popular culture and her own photos\, Walrod addresses the cultural construction of nature.

SUMMARY:Jane Jin Kaisen: Burial of This Order
DESCRIPTION:Burial of This Order brings together three works by Jane Jin Kaisen that underscore her ongoing interest in ritual\, collectivity\, capitalist critique\, and the possibilities of social and political transgressions. \nThe exhibition centres on Kaisen’s titular video installation (2022)\, through which the audience is invited to follow a funerary procession gathered to ceremoniously bury a world order built upon hierarchy and division. The social actors called on to perform this duty\, including artists\, poets and activists\, transgress traditional ceremonial practices indicating that this ritualized enactment is a funeral without grievers\, assembled to dismantle unlivable structures\, rather than lament current conditions. \nThe exhibition’s central work is accompanied by Sorrow Waters This Land (2024) and Dokkaebi (2024). The former focuses on the setting for the procession – a derelict resort on Jeju Island that was abandoned following the IMF financial crisis of the 1990s\, now persisting as a crumbling ruin of capitalism. The latter features powerful Dokkaebi deities from Korean folklore\, unpredictable tricksters who dance suggestively through the space\, haunting or perhaps compelling the procession.
