Fractured: A closer look into the human identity and its reverberations across the land | Jazz Danis

Monday 12th February-Saturday 9th March 2024

This striking collection inspires dialogue through symbolic visual storytelling around shared humanities and our bodies as extensions of the living world around us.

Artist Jazz Danis was born in the interior of Canada, influenced by vast wild homelands, and her love for community. This collection offers us a pathway to conversations much larger than ourselves, rooted in some of the simplest human pleasures that tether us to the land. Each individual piece embodies our presence within our living environments, and how it has shaped us through time immemorial.

Over the years the artist has fostered a unique style that is influenced by folk art, for its simple and profound societal impacts throughout human history. This gathering of visual stories will embrace you, and awaken within you an ancient human rhythm of coalescing with the earth.

‘‘It is my mission through my artistic practice to stay true to my roots in reciprocity, to create beauty, and to provide tangible bodies for dialogue.’’
-Jazz Danis
