About the exhibition: Temporal

Temporal unites the photography of Alison Rossiter and the sculpture of Catherine Burgess. Burgess carves delicate shapes from thin air and explores perception. Rossiter uses expired photo paper to create abstract pieces that capture vast timescales between the paper’s expiry and her exposure. In both artists’ work, there is an interplay between absence and presence and a tension between the real and the illusory. Temporal both solidifies and dissolves notions of time and space.

This exhibition is organised by the Art Gallery of Alberta and curated by Catherine Crowston and Lindsey Sharman.

This tour is for self-identified seniors and is free with admission. The event has a capacity of 30, so please reserve your tickets early.

Accessibility notes: We offer a whisper audio guide system with headsets for use. These wearable transmitters allow visitors to listen to the tour guide without straining to hear or being distracted by ambient noise in the galleries. If you pause to contemplate an artwork longer, you won’t miss what the tour guide says next.
