David Merritt
Petal Pushers.
Marnie Fleming.
Organized as a conduit between the gallery inside and the garden outside, this exhibition of four installation artists exploits the theme of nature and the passage of time through the use of flowers as readymades. The artists - David Merritt, Chrysanne Stathacos, Laura Vickerson and Tomiyo Sasaki - encourage the viewer to take an active role in the unfolding narratives and slow motion dramas which the various uses and juxtapositions of petals, pins and light elicit. Includes an essay by Fleming and statements by the artists.

David Merritt: Littera.
James Patten, Carol Laing.
Two essays illuminate the historical and theoretical foundation for the Ontario artist's wall and floor works constructed from pins and twigs. The images he creates (some are text-based; others freeze a movement in time) suggest the organic materiality of language and the temporal patterns of growth and decay.
