Event Description:

Wireframe is a site-specific installation that uses photo-luminescent tape to trace the unique architecture of the main gallery at Stride. Inspired by early ’80s science-fiction film sets, video games, and AutoCAD, Wireframe creates tension between real and virtual space, converting the gallery into an immersive three-dimensional drawing. Through this ‘drawing’ process, the individuality of the site is revealed, positioning the gallery as a collaborator in the work. This empathetic turn creates a radical shift of perspective amongst audience members, proposing an inter-subjective relationship; we program the gallery while the gallery simultaneously programs us.

Scott Rogers is a Canadian visual artist who works with site-specific projects and experimental collaborations. He has exhibited extensively in Canada, and participated in exhibitions in Minneapolis, Berlin, New York, Chicago, Oakland and Ireland. Recent reviews of his work have appeared in Artforum, the Globe and Mail, and C Magazine.

Opening reception: Thursday, January 21st, 7:00 - 8:00pm.
Stride is open to the public from 11am - 5pm, Tuesday - Saturday.
