Take time to slow down and deeply observe works in the exhibition Joan Scaglione: Shifting Realities. Guided by Agnes docents, this contemplation practice allows for relaxation and new insights.

At Deep Looking, we aim to facilitate conversations around artworks shaped by participants’ unique perspectives, rather than promoting a singular reading. We ask that participants come with a willingness to listen, share and collaborate.

Joan Scaglione harnesses flows of accumulated drawings and materials into swelling sculptural installations and soaring wall assemblages in this solo exhibition of new work. More subtly, the artist makes rhythmic urgings for ‘feeling out’ radical leaps and disjunctions that might transit across different material worlds, following her practice of radical openness.

Colloquially, “hidden in plain sight” means something right before you that you don’t see, because it is too obvious or too common to pay attention to. Or you’ve seen it a thousand times. Skateboarder, photographer and counter-culture influencer, Jay Bridges makes us pay attention to Kingston in new ways in this series that highlights ordinary but iconic landscapes of Kingston’s generic built environment.
