Raewyn Turner and Brian Harris, Sensoria. The Art and Science of our Senses
LAZNIA Centre for Contemporary Art, Gdansk, Poland and York University, Toronto, Canada
16 September —
30 October 2022
Sensoria: The Art and Science of Our Senses is a multi-site exhibition and hybrid symposium that bridges LAZNIA Centre for Contemporary Art (LCCA) in Gdansk, Poland and Sensorium: Centre for Digital Arts & Technology at York University in Toronto, Canada. Held simultaneously in both locations, the exhibition and symposium engage multi-sensory research that revitalises our sensory connections to our surroundings, through and despite technological tools, networks and latencies.
Sensoria is co-curated by distinguished curator Nina Czegledy and Sensorium director Joel Ong, with the support of assistant curators Eva Lu and Cleo Sallis-Parchet. The project explores the intersection of art, science and the senses, bringing together an international network of artists: Guy van Belle, Roberta Buiani, Lorella Di Cintio, Grace Grothaus, Kavi, Hrysovalanti Maheras, Agnes Meyer-Brandis, Gayil Nalls, Michael Palumbo, Michaela Pnacekova, Raewyn Turner and Brian Harris.

Mata Aho Collective at the Toronto Biennial of Art
Arsenal Contemporary Art Toronto, Canada
26 March —
05 June 2022
What Water Knows, The Land Remembers draws from polyphonic histories sedimented in and around Toronto, revealing entangled narratives and ecologies across time and space. This second edition of a two-part biennial extends and deepens concepts of relationality, envisioning an expansive form of kinship—between curators, with artists and collaborators, and with the human and more-than-human. Exhibition and programming sites for the 2022 Biennial move inland from the shoreline, following the tributaries, above ground and hidden, which shape this place. Biennial sites are grouped in relation to these seen and buried waterways, and follow the trajectories of Etobicoke Creek, the Laurentian Channel, Garrison Creek, and Taddle Creek.
