Jaspal Birdi: Eyes Looking Without Seeing

 

The Women’s Art Association of Canada is pleased to present “Eyes Looking Without Seeing”, which marks the end of Jaspal Birdi’s year-long artist residency at the Women’s Art Association of Canada

 

Thursday, September 8, 2022 from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM

Dignam Gallery, Women’s Art Association of Canada

 

Using smartphones, laser printers, and paint, Jaspal Birdi creates large photo-based works full of colour, technical glitches, and specks of gold. Her works explore the nature of memory—shaped by physical and virtual realities—and the potential for audience reinterpretation.

In this exhibition, Jaspal Birdi presents works on paper, thermal blankets, canvas, and in augmented reality. Particularly curious in the ways that cultural diversity is layered, Jaspal Birdi stages “Eyes Looking Without Seeing” in a manner that encourages visitors to sit, talk, draw, and write within the typical 19th century Toronto home that is Dignam Gallery. This exhibition will invite you to actively reinterpret the works on display by revisiting your personal stories and histories of coming to, growing up, and living in Ontario.

 

Jaspal Birdi acknowledges generous support from Pusateri's, the Ontario Arts Council and the City of Brampton for assisting in the realization of this project.
