Other Worlds Exhibition at Audain Gallery




















Simon Fraser University’s School for the Contemporary Art and the Audain Gallery are excited to announce OTHER WORLDS. 

OTHER WORLDS is a show curated by SFU’s third year visual arts students showing collaboratively created works surrounding the ideas of otherness, self-reflectivity, politics, globalization and colonization. OTHER WORLDS aims to explore the infinitely expanding frontier of space-travel, science fiction and science fact, futurism and global-self-awareness from a variety of critical views arising out of an interest in collectivity.

The only way to truly recognize the self is by comparing it to the mirror-self, the reflection of an entity that is whole and separate. It points at the original source whilst being removed from it… reflection.

“We have no need of other worlds; we need mirrors.”
Stanislaw Lem, Solaris


Opening March 26 at 7:00pm
Audain Gallery in Vancouver, British Columbia
