Humber Galleries presents Facing Future at L Space Gallery from January 22 to March 28, 2024.

Opening Reception - Thursday, February 8 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

This group exhibition showcases the work of recent graduates' alongside professional artists' additions to Humber College’s Permanent Art Collection. Works featured include paintings, photography, prints, mixed media and sculpture by artists Kim Dorland, Shellie Zhang, Akshata Naik and several Humber Alumni, featuring six emerging artists, all recent graduates of the Visual and Digital Arts Program; Georgia Acheampong, Jasmine Cowan, Chesley Davis, Ebru Kur, Maya Iraheta and Alyssa Mahon. 

Facing Future speaks to the realities of the present and the world to come, dealing with themes of the climate emergency, immigration, migration, identity, connection to one’s ancestral land and within their current place in the world. As artists and recent graduates look to the future in a world where optimism is challenged amongst myriad environmental and humanitarian catastrophes, they continue to move forward, telling their stories honestly and fearlessly.
