Gallery Gachet is proud to present works from the Gachet member catalogues of Bernadine Fox, Youngshin Lee and Cherise Clarke. These women have been and continue to be irreplaceable and integral parts of the Gachet collective organism. We Salute You!
Bernadine Fox’s work focuses on the complexities of self-expression, most especially how non-verbal forms of communication reveal the human condition and our sense of identity. (www.bernadinefox.ca) Youngshin Lee is a sculptor who’s work in clay is both abstract and figurative, roughly textured and smooth finished, and which seems to hint at some greater immutable duality. Cherise Clarke is visual and performing artist who uses art to document and bear witness to the tensions, ironies and anxieties she experiences living in contemporary society.
Salon Shop is an inclusive micro-gallery space located at Gallery Gachet featuring work by Gachet’s collective and volunteer members. As art and cultural spaces and resources are seized and disappear, most artists are being left with limited options. The Salon Shop offers innovative ways to re purpose and share already existing space by defining “a room of our own” specifically for displaying our members’ works. The Salon Shop is Coordinated by collective member, Ayaz Kamani. For more information, please contact Programming Director, Lara Fitzgerald, programming@gachet.org or call 604 687 2468 .
