Exhibition: Amy Ash — Bodies of Work
18 October - 11 January 2020
Amy Ash is a Saint John based artist, curator and educator. In a new exhibition spanning four collections of work, Ash invites us to reflect on collective memory. In Bodies of Work, she threads together found imagery with shapes performed by bodies at work. She presents us visual narratives that transform the familiar ways of remembering—photographic evidence and muscle memory—allowing us to create new connections between them.
