Building Black Civilizations: Journey of 2,000 Ships continues artist Ekow Nimako’s afrofuturistic reimagining of ancient African kingdoms. Using LEGO® bricks as his medium, Nimako explores the mysterious 14th century sea voyage of the predecessor of Mansa Musa, ruler of the Mali Empire. According to legends, Abu Bakr II was an intrepid explorer, abdicated his throne and took 2,000 ships on an expedition into the Atlantic, but was never to return or heard from again. Some accounts suggest the massive fleet reached as far as the Americas, but where they went beyond this is still unknown. Combining architecture, historical accounts, and fantastical possibilities, Nimako transcends the geometric form of LEGO® to recreate the epic voyage. And in doing so, he presents an uninterrupted and uncoopted narrative of Black civilizations and imagines liberated futures.    Ekow Nimako is a Toronto-based, internationally exhibiting LEGO® artist who crafts futuristic and whimsical s...

Artists Gao Yujie and duo Laura Kavanaugh and Ian Birse (aka Instant Places) transform the gallery into a site for the complex interplay between technology, time-flow , sensory haptics, and human experience. Using visual and sound-based electronic media and traditional art methods, Kavanaugh and Birse explore the reflexive interflow between the body and the machine. Similarly, Gao Yujie questions the perception of time as it is interpreted and manipulated by both humans and the machine. Together the work situates our experience along an expansive continuum defined by the flux of time.
Simultaneously dense and light, still and dynamic, refined and complex, the works embody the running concept that change is the only constant.
* This exhibition changes from time to time.
Under the name Instant Places, Laura Kavanaugh and Ian Birse have created intermedia performances and generative artworks across Japan, Australia, Argentina/Uruguay, the UK, Europe, New York/Chicago, and Canada. Recent h...

Additional Information:
Urban Legends honours Holly Aubichon’s relatives, growing up in Canada’s violent, forceful attempt to assimilate Indigenous people. In these works, Holly pieces together stories of relatives, symbolically recovering and restoring them to her circle.
Due to their weight, these stories come in glimpses; short conversations or a passing memory shared on the road. Holly has collected these fragments and reimagined them through her paintings, removing colonial filters and restoring the stories in a way to build a better understanding and connection.
Art is healing, a way to document and preserve her paternal lineage while placing herself as the leading matriarch within these painted narratives. Her paintings depict intimate urban interiors, where individuals do their best to continue traditional ways while adapting to contemporary urban realities.
Holly's family had to be tough, living in both worlds of figuring out how to cope in the city, and with the effects of residential sc...
