MacEwan University's Mitchell Art Gallery is proud to present a special exhibition, Still Move.
This exhibition features works by the graduating class from the university's Bachelor of Fine Arts, Studio Arts program.
The pieces in the exhibition feature a wide range of creative practices including video, animation, sound, painting, sculpture, textiles, drawing, book arts, print and photo processes and installation.
Still Move: Studio Arts 2025 BFA Grad Show features the work of artists Keni Ayuno, Lydia Buhay, Isabella Camerino, Michelle Goulet, Kathleen MacKay, Maya Pereira, Sutharot Plia, Lindsey Powlik and Alethea Recla. The artworks offer nine different meditations on the idea that stillness and movement are not exclusive of one another.
The graduates collectively created an artists' statement about the show and its themes. It reads, "Amidst the fast-paced world of the 21st century, we take this opportunity to pause. Still Move suggests that the idea of growing and moving forward is only possible if we embrace rest and reflection. In a rebellious fashion and through a feminist lens, this exhibition dismisses the capitalist values of productivity and consumption. Instead, Still Move advocates for the acts of pausing, observing, questioning and sharing, and in doing so, embracing hope and care for ourselves and others."
The exhibition runs from April 10 to 17, Tuesday to Saturday, noon to 5 p.m.
