InterPLAY: Creative encounters

A curated exhibition at the Gananoque Arts Network,
Noel Bullock Gallery​
​Where do ideas meet? How do people, colours, materials, and energies collide, overlap, or reshape each other? From scientific process to collaborative experimentation; whether 2D, 3D, or something altogether unexpected, this exhibition invites artists in any medium to push boundaries and reveal unexpected connections.
