Opening Night: Breathing Room by Myung-Sun Kim

SAVAC is excited to launch Natural Interruptions, a new series of artistic interventions in The Commons @ 401 Richmond. We will be inviting artists to make material interventions that respond to the nature of our new shared space; its history, spatial configuration, use of material, and access to light. Natural Interruptions will open with Breathing Room, an installation by Toronto-based artist Myung-Sun Kim. Join us for the opening on Thursday 23 August 2018 at 7pm

Breathing Room is a site-specific multi-part installation with interactive window panels, text and archival materials that reflects on the relational practices of archive-making. Read more about the installation here.
