Enjoy some views of Kasia Sosnowski's exhibition SNEEK-E-PEEP’N in Esker's Project Space, until January 31, viewable from street-level on 9th Avenue at the Atla...ntic Avenue Art Block in Inglewood. Sosnowski created many of the works on view on a residency earlier this year at Medalta in the Historic Clay District, in Medicine Hat. "At a moment when many of us find ourselves spending more time close to home, walking through neighborhoods, glancing furtively into nearby windows, SNEEK-E-PEEP’N conjures the wordless space between connection, transgression, and voyeurism." #kasiasosnowski #ceramics Medalta Photos by: John Dean.

WEEKEND UPDATE STOP MOTION ANIMATION WORKSHOP BALANCING ACT for children of all ages, with artist Suzanne Presinal Saturday 21 November, 2pm, free! A... few spots are still available! Workshop will be held online via Zoom. The link is below or register via our website www.eskerfoundation.com For this family program we invite children of all ages to join us for a session in balance, whimsy, laughter and fun. Can we balance stuffies with LEGO, a fork with a bowl, then put it all in a kid-made box? Are you up for a challenge? While the kids work with balancing household objects and toys in new ways, parent-collaborators get to film using a stop motion animation app to document these tippy and precarious sculptures! From our workshop space to your living rooms, let’s take some time to adventure and play together. #EskerFoundation #EskerPrograms #EskeratHome #museumathome #thisweekend #animation #stopmotion #film #artworkshop #SamuelRoyBois #homesculpture #family #kidsart #kidsmakeart 's: Installation views of Samuel Roy-Bois' exhibition "Presences" on view until 19 December.
