CANADIAN FRAME(LINES)

May 11 – June 18, 2016

Seymour Art Gallery presents an immersive video exhibition of 74 films made by the residents of eleven small and rural Canadian towns as part of the Canadian Frame(lines) community filmmaking project. With the guidance of BC-based filmmakers Alexandra Caulfield and Ryder Thomas White, each participant in this project was given basic instruction, a camera, a roll of black and white Super 8mm film, and creative freedom to make a movie about their community and what they thought of when they thought about home. What resulted was a collection of images as diverse as the country’s population. In tandem with the exhibition, the filmmakers behind this initiative will work with locals in Deep Cove to produce their own 3-minute films, which we will screen on the last day of the exhibition.

Artist Talk: Sunday May 15, 2 p.m.
Deep Cove Films Screening: Saturday June 18, 2 p.m.
