The Carrot Gallery is pleased to present Impermanence of Things Remembered, featuring works from Yvonne DuBourdieu and Agata Garbowska. This dual exhibition features landscape paintings that explore ideas of imperfection and impermanence.

​About the Artists
DuBourdieu is an emerging contemporary expressionist painter working mostly in oil. She blends marks of realism, impressionism and abstraction to the subjects that populate her works: landscapes, birds, animals and humans. Each of DuBourdieu's works in this collection invoke a memory of a place, set in landscapes of invention, infused with an energy that comes with reliving or reimagining a moment through memory. These recollections have been roused and pieced together though looking back at photographs from DuBourdieu's past and use the figurative imagery as source material for the paintings. The process of looking back can spark a flood of emotions that set off a chain reaction, unleashing seemingly disparate thoughts that feed into one another till the connective emotions drift in and out of the imperfect, impermanence of things remembered.

Garbowska is a painter, printmaker and frequent lurker on the Edmonton arts scene. Her most recent body of work is an exploration of spaces in flux. These spaces are not inhabited, but suggest human presence with select objects and remnants. Panel and plexiglass, materials often used in the construction of everyday space, are combined with painting, collage, and sculpture, to construct pieces that echo with human presence. These pieces are informed by our ongoing ecological disaster—an attempt to reckon with the catastrophic consequences of our comfortable everyday domesticity.
