About the Item

Collage of photographs and Pantone color swatches on paper Suspended in a Sunbeam, is a series of mixed-media works that span Jessica Houston’s decade-long engagement with the Canadian North. Houston explores the complex ecosystems of the Arctic, including its history of colonialization, current territorial claims, and climate change. Fragments coalesce in the gallery - colours of soil, a photograph of an abandoned trading post, a charred piece of wood emitting sounds - to emphasize the active power of materials. Earth itself fills the gallery, and our relationship to land, territory and matter is called into question. Suspended in a Sunbeam offers a space to engage with the histories through which ecologies are made and unmade - a space of solidarity with the ‘non-human’ that evokes another soil under the ground of land, where a self-organizing earth stirs.

  • Amour is French
    Located in Miami, FL
    Photography mounted on Diasec/Mixed Media Anne Valverde (b. 1968) is a Parisian photographer fascinated by urban spaces and the graphism of landscapes. She creates a dreamlike world through the use of her photographs featuring idyllic settings, furthering this effect with calligraphy and light. After digital processing, the high-resolution prints are exclusively developed on silver paper. According to Valverde, she designs her photos to be imaginative springboards: "windows with views." Since 2016, she has worked cross-country on the DREAM ART project with neon set-up in her photographs. Through the medium of neon, she revives the essence of the word "photograph," which translates to "writing with light" in Greek. Her literal interpretation transports the viewer into a realm of ethereal landscapes. Parisian photographer fascinated by urban spaces and the graphism of landscapes. She notably tries to make dreams about people by photographs of idyllic decors. In her job, she links calligraphy and light, her two main passions.
