  • Make It Strange
    Michael Drebert, Edgar Heap of Birds, Vanessa Kwan, Michael Morris, Vincent Trasov and Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun
    Curated by Andrea Pinheiro


    Malaspina Printmakers is pleased to present Make It Strange, an exhibition of works that de-familiarize our conventional relationship to print media. Through the fabrication or manipulation of signs, posters, official legal documents, rubber stamps and altered printed ephemera, the works in the exhibition disrupt our conventional perception of, and relation to these modes of communication. Each of the pieces exhibited alludes to ways in which print mediates our relationship to place and offers alternative ways of connecting to and experiencing the city, the nation or the distances between us. Make It Strange is intended to raise questions about how we perceive and relate to print in our daily lives, the power it has to structure our experience and at the same time present propositions for interaction with the medium.
