ARTIST RECEPTION & TALK
SATURDAY OCTOBER 18. 1-4
CKG is pleased to present an exhibition of new photographic works by Calgary-based artist Bryce Krynski.
In this body of work, Krynski challenges conventional ideas of how photographs are made, embracing both rudimentary processes and the unpredictable images that emerge through chance. The resulting prints are at once curious and mesmerizing—evocative explorations of landscape shaped as much by accident as by intention.

maybe carry on delivery child, is a body of work that draws on the distinct feeling of returning to somewhere you've never been before. Created during a trip to Poland to learn about my family's 16th-century Masovian story, these film photographs—shot with toy cameras in the spirit of following the hazy flow of time, or Eggleston’s ‘being at war with the obvious'—embrace chance and unpredictability as key emotional elements of image making. A visual travel diary through place and time, featuring reactive dye prints on mulberry silk, will be shown as I share my great aunt’s recipe(s)— just like it would be in her home, a visual thread tying unearthed potential personal histories and everyday kitchen rituals.
