This exhibition explores Japanese landscapes through drawing and printmaking, with an interest in “sites of memory.”
Taking inspiration from Pierre Nora’s “Lieux de mémoire,” the exhibition considers an expansive definition of the traditional memorial landscape, spaces that preserve or interpret memory, hold trauma, transform through cultural practice, celebrate the everyday, and transcend time.
Katie Kelly is a senior associate at TEN x TEN and the 2023-2024 Roger Martin Travel Prize Fellow, a prize created to honor the legacy of Roger Martin and his love of travel and drawing. Kelly’s work will be on display around the courtyard in Rapson Hall from March 5 through April 30, 2025. A public reception with Katie will take place on Wednesday, March 5, at 6 PM. All are welcome!
