Statement. This exhibition is comprised of works of sculpture, sculptural works in bas-relief, and examples of automatic writing. All works function as individual repositories of the soul of the creator - more than mnemonic devices, they exist corporeally and in multiple realms at once. They assert belief and the truth behind experience. They are objects which take into account the places the artist has been, experienced, the ideas and faith notions that have determined his art and the nature of his investigations. The nature of a work of art as a transubstantiated soul-object, the relationship between the artist and viewer and the the art object - these are all represented in both process and result.

Statement: Artist/Curator Farhad Nargol-O'Neill has called together twelve artists - fellow travelers, for an exposition of works. His eyes and senses tell him that the creation of these works has involved the transfer of part of each artists being into these objects dart, so that the artists are truly present in the art in a real and fundamental way. All are welcome to view these works and open themselves to experiencing the relationship between these soulful expressive objects, and themselves. A fine collection of much that is best in Canadian art, this exhibition gives an excellent sense of where we have come from, and (in part) where we are going.
Artists: Ray .Cattell, Gary Stark, Pat Fairhead, Farhad Nargol-O'Neill(curato r), Joan Dubros, Mary Jane Holmes Baillie, Bruce Ferreira-Wells, Andrew Cheddie Sookrah, Homa Ismaili, Jon Riosa, Nathan Cyprys, Ottilie Mason.
