SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibition: Ashes! Ashes! by Margaret Joba-Woodruff
DESCRIPTION:EXHIBITION DETAILS: \nEXHIBITION TITLE AND ARTIST: \nAshes! Ashes! \nDATES: \nFebruary 20 – April 10\, 2026 \nLOCATION:  \nAlberta Printmakers Main Space Gallery \n460 42 Avenue SE \nMohkinstsis/Calgary\, AB \nABOUT THE EXHIBITION:  \n“Most prints are contact relics in this sense\, inasmuch as they are essentially stains on one surface that attest to damage done to another surface.” \n– Jennifer L. Roberts\, Contact: Art and the Pull of Print \nSoot on the inside of a fireplace. Drops of candle wax on a dining table. A felt blanket draped over the armrest of a chair. Ashes! Ashes! is an exhibition grounded in the materials of charcoal\, beeswax\, paper and wool combined with printed gestures of cutting\, redrawing\, and wiping away. As I reflect on the 14 houses that I have moved in and out of over the last decade\, I turn to drawing as both an archival and speculative practice. The works exhibited here trace both real memories and imagined scenarios of these homes and the 25 people I shared them with\, manipulating the images through techniques of monotype\, collagraph\, and mokulito to reveal themes of comfort\, deterioration\, and repair. For myself and many of those closest to me\, our paths through the smog of urban housing precarity have been lined with neglectful landlords\, deteriorating architecture\, personal conflicts\, unpaid debts\, and threatening property managers. By sinking its teeth into moments in these spaces and the relationships made and lost in them\, Ashes! Ashes! wonders — with uncertainty\, grief\, and sometimes hope— what is left behind\, what do we take with us\, and where do we go from here? \nABOUT THE ARTIST: \nMargaret Joba-Woodruff is a visual artist whose practice employs an interdisciplinary approach to printmaking to consider the intersections of land\, body\, family\, memory\, and labour. After completing a BFA in Visual Art at the University of British Columbia in 2020\, she became a worker-owner of the Vancouver Artist Labour Union Cooperative before relocating to St John’s\, Ktaqmkuk (Newfoundland) to spend a year in residence as the ‘22-’23 Don Wright Scholar at St Michael’s Printshop. Her work has been supported by the Canada Council for the Arts and Arts NL\, and has been exhibited across Canada\, in the UK\, and Taiwan.  \nBorn in Montréal and raised on the island of Martha’s Vineyard\, Joba-Woodruff is once again living in Vancouver\, BC as a guest on the homelands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam)\, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish)\, and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations after two meaningful years of living and working in Ktaqmkuk. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA/P COMMUNICATIONS AND CONTACT INFO\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstagram: @abprintmakers  \nFacebook: @AlbertaPrintmakers \nWebsite: https://albertaprintmakers.com/event/noticeme/

SUMMARY:WHEN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TAKES THE STAGE
DESCRIPTION:WHEN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TAKES THE STAGE \nAn Immersive Theatrical Puzzle Where the Answer  \nChanges Every Night \nSage Theatre\, in Association with Vertical City\, present RESET by Bruce Barton \nCalgary\, AB —Four figures wake up in an isolated room\, with no memory of how they arrived. Each holds a single\, fragmented clue—just out of reach. As they begin to share what little they know\, a chilling realization emerges: the real question is not who they are\, but what they are. Because only one of them is human\, and in an AI-driven world\, being human can be dangerous. reset by Bruce Barton\, presented by Sage Theatre\, in association with Vertical City\, runs from March 18 – 22\, 2026 at Contemporary Calgary. \n“We’ve been developing this project in some capacity for 8 years\, and yet somehow we’re completely addressing the conversations of our AI-filled current moment! Our story addresses our humanity by questioning it at every step; what about our experiences\, our responses\, make us human?” said Jason Mehmel\, Sage Theatre’s Artistic Director. \n“This production is a highlight of the craft of acting\, stripped down to the fine-tuned artistic impulses of some of Calgary’s best actors. The details of humanity might show up in the smallest reaction; we want our audience to be watching closely. The stories that lurk underneath these characters are also not simply sci-fi tropes\, but lyrical\, human moments. To allow for that\, we’re collaborating with filmmaker Emil Agopian\, who captures these characters and broadcasts to screens allowing the audience to keep a close eye on all four characters\, constantly.” \nreset\, written by Bruce Barton and created in association with Vertical City\, is an intimate\, immersive theatre experience where the audience becomes part of the investigation. Each performance unfolds as a high-stakes mystery that changes nightly—because even the actors don’t know the answer when the show begins. \n“I began dreaming about this project almost a decade ago\, and Jason has been my creative companion at every step of the journey. In that time\, the state and significance of Artificial Intelligence have evolved almost unrecognizably. Remarkably\, however (and fortunately for us)\, the ideas we’re navigating have never been more relevant and urgent. We hope audiences will encounter a world that is both strange and familiar—much like the headlines they consume every day\,” added Writer and Director Bruce Barton\, who is also the Co-Director of Vertical City. \nSet inside Contemporary Calgary\, this limited five-night run invites audiences into a suspenseful\, close-quarters encounter with questions of identity\, technology\, and what it means to be human in an increasingly artificial world. \nCast & Creative Team  \nBraden Griffiths \nJamie Konchak \nJulie Orton \nMike Tan \nBruce Barton: Writer & Director; Vertical City Co-Director \nK Hall: Stage Manager \nJason Mehmel: Associate Director & Producer; Sage Theatre Artistic Director \nDylan Lindsay: Associate Producer\, Composer & Sound Designer \nEmil Agopian: Filmmaker – Stream Designer \nPerformance Dates \nWednesday\, March 18\, 2026 – 7:30 pm (Opening Night) \nThursday\, March 19\, 2026 – 7:30 pm \nFriday\, March 20\, 2026 – 7:30 pm \nSaturday\, March 21\, 2026 – 7:30 pm \nSunday\, March 22\, 2026 – 7:30 pm \nTickets \nChoose-your-price: $60\, $30\, or $15 \nStandard ticket: $30 \nPatrons who are able are encouraged to select a higher price or make an additional donation to support the work. \nreset blends live performance with immersive storytelling\, inviting audiences to observe closely\, connect the clues\, and question their own assumptions.
