From the Ground Up
curators7 is a collective of emerging curators seeking to experiment with the boundaries of contemporary curatorial practices through new site methodologies and research driven approaches to the practice. The group seeks to move art out of traditional gallery spaces and challenges viewers to confront the spaces they occupy through the invasion of art in the public realm. curators7 was formed by B.A.S.C, John Campbell, Aanchal Dhillon, Hilary Dow, HaYung Kim, Mira Szuberwood, and Dominique Wong under the mentorship of Christine Shaw, Director/Curator of the Blackwood Gallery and Assistant Professor, Teaching Stream at the University of Toronto Mississauga.
Installation, 3 cubic yards of repurposed soil.
A pile of soil will appear in the atrium of the Communication, Culture and Technology (CCT) building and will be on display to the public three days prior to the opening reception. Launching the project, the dirt pile is an intervention of raw land that draws attention to the surrounding infrastructure by contrasting dirt with architecture.
