Presence in a past or an undetermined future. Delaney Family Emerging Curator’s Prize

January 22 to May 17, 2025 

Guest Curated by Avalon Mott 

Presence in a past or an undetermined future. is a two-person exhibition featuring Nabil Azab and Shannon Garden-Smith that endeavours to hold a moment of presence by calling on what came before it, and giving space to think of what will come after it. Through the immersive work of these artists, viewers are encouraged to engage in an act of prolonged looking and moved towards a space of affect. It is in this space and the coalescing of history and future, that the present moment emerges.
