Event Description: Still Move: Studio Arts 2025 BFA Grad Show at MacEwan University features the work of artists Keni Ayuno, Lydia Buhay, Isabella Camerino, Michelle Goulet, Kathleen MacKay, Maya Pereira, Sutharot Plia, Lindsey Powlik and Alethea Recla. In a wide range of creative practices, the artworks in this exhibition offer nine different meditations on the idea that stillness and movement are not exclusive of one another.

Co-existing at the Mitchell Art Gallery located in Treaty 6 Territory, the artworks span multiple media and methods in an expressive and eclectic manner. The exhibition includes video, animation, sound, painting, sculpture, textiles, drawing, book arts, print and photo processes, and installation.

Amidst the fast-paced world of the 21st century, we take this opportunity to pause. Still Move suggests that the idea of growing and moving forward is only possible if we embrace rest and reflection. In a rebellious fashion and through a feminist lens, this exhibition dismisses the capitalist values of productivity and consumption. Instead, Still Move advocates for the acts of pausing, observing, questioning and sharing, and in doing so, embracing hope and care for ourselves and others. 

Accessibility information: The Mitchell Art Gallery (MAG) is located on the main floor of MacEwan University's Allard Hall. There is paid parking underground with elevator access and a gravel lot behind Allard Hall with ramped sidewalks. There are no stairs to enter into Allard Hall from ground level. The MAG has a wide, open doorway and seating available for those who might need a rest. An ASL interpreter will be present during the speaking portion of the evening's programming.

In 1891, Johanna Bonger, widow of Vincent van Gogh’s brother Theo, finds herself in possession of all of Vincent’s artwork–over 600 pieces. Though she is told to rid herself of the “worthless art”, she refuses, and passionately takes on the mission to bring Vincent’s work to the forefront of the art world. After Mourning – Before van Gogh follows Johanna on her tireless 35- year journey to give the work of van Gogh the attention it deserves.
