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:Nour Ouayda The Secret Garden (2023)
DESCRIPTION:February 18—March 15\, 2026\nHeather Edwards Theatre | 12-4 PM daily\nThe Secret Garden (2023) opens with a simple yet uncanny premise. One morning\, strange and unfamiliar plants erupt across an unnamed city\, turning streets and squares into an entangled labyrinth. Through the voices of Camelia and Nahla – two unseen protagonists who uncover a notebook chronicling this invasion – Nour Ouayda constructs a narrative that wavers between the documentary and the speculative. \nShot on 16mm film\, The Secret Garden is punctuated with close-ups of foliage and flowers that function as more than mere botanical studies; they are meditations on the elements of life we often neglect\, and over which we have no control. Each shot lingers long enough to reveal grainy textures and muted movements\, mirroring the nature of growth\, whether it is welcome or parasitic. Across its eight chapters\, the film layers these visual fragments with a lyrical voiceover that sometimes feels like pillowtalk\, weaving together fragments of a tale that feels cautionary\, grounded\, and dreamlike all at once. \nBeneath its quiet surface\, The Secret Garden reflects on the transformations that colour and contour the world we inhabit. The eruption of new life becomes both a symptom of society’s existing ailments and a sign of things to come: a reminder of the chaos and destruction it may cause\, but also of the possibility of regeneration. By destabilizing all of these different layers\, Ouayda invites viewers to reimagine the city as a living\, breathing organism and to consider the potential upside of this plant invasion. Her secret garden is not so much an escape from reality as much as an invitation to reimagine what this reality can – or perhaps should – be\, amid the cracks and fractures of the present that we occupy. \nThe Secret Garden (2023) is being screened as part of This small parcel of earth\, a two-part program curated by Muriel N. Kahwagi. \nAccess to this screening is included with admission. This program is presented in conjunction with Entwined\, curated by Mona Filip. \nThe first work in this series is Christina Battle’s seeds are meant to disperse (2022)\, on view from December 6-31\, 2025\, Wednesday to Sunday\, 12-4 PM.
