Tactile Memories

Events, Art Shows and Exhibits

Emily Kirsch, Angie Marchinkow, and Nicole Young work across different mediums in Tactile Memories to make collective touch points. They highlight the importance of taking part in pursuits where we allow ourselves to be guided by interest rather than expectation, as a means to work through our lived experiences. Through bold gestural movements, vivid mark making, and large-scale acts of sewing and rug tufting; these artists demonstrate the physical, emotional, and material aspects of their making processes. By taking on an intuitive approach in their individual art practices, each artist explores the idea of play from a place of curiosity and indulgence. Kirsch, Marchinkow, and Young invite viewers to participate in an inquisitive outlook of the world, by allowing them to engage with what is tangible in this exhibition. Taking the opportunity to play, whether in visual arts or elsewhere, gives us space to access our emotions and better process personal histories, allowing us to interrupt repetition by creating something new.

Join us in celebrating the opening of Tactile Memories at CityScape Community Artspace on Thursday, September 26. The exhibition runs September 27 to November 9, 2024.
