COFFEE & PINE

Spirit of the Natural World, Beauty, and Complexities

The John B. Aird Gallery is proud to present the catalog for COFFEE & PINE: Spirit of the Natural World, Beauty, and Complexities, by Salvadoran Canadian artist, Frances Cordero de Bolaños, and curated by Gallery Director, Carla Garnet. This exhibition showcased Central American and northern-hemisphere forests in technicolor, photo-based, still, and moving-image landscapes. Cordero de Bolaños’ ecofeminist works capture the supernatural qualities of both boreal and tropical rainforests, highlighting their role in natural water conservation. The artist addresses human rights and women’s issues about the natural world, reminding us of the interconnectedness of climate issues, migration, and geographical contexts.

The gallery relocated to Artscape 906 Queen West in 2019 and will remain at this swing-space until renovations are completed at its original location in the Macdonald Block (at Bay Wellesley) in 2024-25. Your support is greatly appreciated during this exciting transition!
