This is an excellent exhibition space for viewing fine art. The show I saw which opened on October 30 and runs until mid-December features a Montreal artist by the name of Victoria Block. PURE MAGIC! It consists of two ceramic sculpture installations - one called Slipstream and the other Prayer For The Planet - which consists of 112 completely different sculpted vessels - each punctured with thousands of intricately designed holes through which light emits. The effect is breathtaking ... awe-inspiring. I have never seen anything like it. This work dazzles like a starry night sky and the light through the designs sparkles as one walks among these beautiful forms. Standing quietly at strategic points within this installation fills one with different qualities of peace. It was perfectly complimented by a companion installation, Slipstream, and three finely rendered ink on canvas paintings. If you've been waiting for something unique - something transformative, this is the show to see.

Nice and relaxed
