Eye for the Care Worn World at Neighbourhood Gallery

Neighbourhood Gallery at Neighbourhood Unitarian Universalist Congregation, 79 Hiawatha Rd., is showing  Eye for the Care Worn World, a group photography show, through June 4.

Featuring work by Richard Holt, Ed Preston, Rodrigo Solano-Quesnel and Brad Walker, photographers who have travelled Ontario, the United States, Europe and Mexico “looking for places and things that were once grand but are now slightly worn, largely abandoned and changed with time and weather,” according to curator Lauren McKinley Renzetti’s artist statement for the show.

“Signs are everywhere and their worn nature speaks volumes about how the ever-present big brother is directing us even from the past.”

Renzetti points to Solano-Quesnel’s work, consisting of architecture and old things in new spaces, as a sensory challenge, with pieces that pair photos to create an illusory 3D effect.

Gallery hours are Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. More information can be found at www.nuuc.ca.
