Join us for the opening reception of Do I Know You? on Saturday, September 24th from 12:30 to 2:30 pm with a wine tasting from Kitsch Wines. The exhibition includes works from eight Bachelor of Fine Arts alumni including Jenny Long (BFA’03), Cherie Stocken (BFA’06), Christina Leinemann (BFA’06), Tia-Maria Soroskie (BFA’03), Cory Dixon (BFA’10), Emily Geen (BFA’12), Hans Lujan (BFA’12), and Laura Widmer (BFA’12). This exhibition is hosted by the Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies (FCCS) in collaboration with UBC Okanagan Gallery, and alumni UBC as part of Homecoming 2022 at UBC Okanagan.
This exhibition is curated by UBC Okanagan Gallery Curatorial Assistant Ryan Trafananko, and FCCS Communications Specialist Shauna Oddleifson, and is sponsored by alumni UBC.
Do I Know You? explores the concept of a first impression and public personas through eight figurative and portrait artworks by UBC Okanagan fine arts alumni. Viewers are encouraged to examine works spanning photography, painting and drawing and ask themselves the questions: who exactly do you see?
Do I Know You? runs from September 19-29 and is open from 9 am to 4 pm weekdays (closed weekends and holidays).
