Join exhibiting artist Alison James for an artist talk, in conjunction with her exhibition The In-Betweens!

The In-Betweens analyzes the creation, storage, and recollection of Alison James’ episodic memories. Five emotional, unnerving animations loop within the gallery, and are installed alongside the tactile, intricate sets and frames used to make them, offering insight into their creation and encouraging reflection upon the memory making process.

Alison James is a visual artist who creates tactile, layered, emotional animated works by combining printmaking, papercutting, and animation. Through her work, she seeks to understand memory reconstruction, and memory’s impact on personal identity. Alison is based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, where she received a BFA Honours Degree from the University of Manitoba in 2014. She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally, and actively engages in artist residencies. She most recently exhibited her work at Engramme in Québec City, QC (2023), and completed MI-LAB’s Basic Training Program in Japan (2023).
