Exhibition November 11-22, 2020

WAAC member Ulla Djelweh is a Toronto-based interdisciplinary artist and a graduate of the Ontario College of Art. She has consistently exhibited and sold her work since 1985. In recent years, digital photography has become her medium of choice. A passion for travel and foreign cultures and her keen interest in landscapes, gardens and architecture often plant the seed for a visual story; a natural or man-made environment supplies her with an abundance of new subjects. Colours, shapes and lines—often created by an ever-changing light and its reflections—might become the trigger for a fresh idea. Current social and political issues are addressed at times.

Spectra 1 Details

Members of Gallery 44 Centre for Contemporary Photography are pleased to announce their presentation of three consecutive group shows in conjunction with the Scotiabank CONTACT 2020 Photography Festival.

Spectra members have been active participants in CONTACT since its inception. A changing collective of members has presented exhibitions, primarily at Gallery 1313, since 1998 and Artscape Youngplace since 2019.

About the exhibit

Photography has the power to engage by sparking the imagination and eliciting a response unique to each viewer. Spectra 1 comprises work by 14 members from Gallery 44 Centre for Contemporary Photography. This exhibition demonstrates varied interpretations of the photographic medium using both traditional and contemporary methods. Responding to individual ideas of place, abstractions, portraiture and others, Spectra speaks to the diversity of artistic practise while celebrating connectedness within the photographic technique.
