This November, ASMAS presents two complementary exhibitions across our galleries: painter/printmaker Mary Jong in the Main Gallery and fibre artist/photographer Emily Fraser in the Freeze Gallery.
Main Gallery — Mary Jong: Somewhere in Time
Circular compositions act like portals, carrying the viewer into valleys, lakes, and cloud-swept, moonlit horizons. The circle—rich with meaning in Chinese cosmography and symbology—becomes both a formal device and a personal emblem, referencing family, the moon, and cycles of completeness. Earth and sky meet in serene, otherworldly dreamscapes.
Freeze Gallery — Emily Fraser: TETHERED: Reflections of Fibre
Emily “paints” landscapes with fibre, weaving together the BC coast and Okanagan interior through upcycled sari ribbon, yarn, roving, and found materials. Photographs are paired with fibre pieces to explore how light, lines, and textures echo across mediums, with select 3D works that consider how memory and place are stitched together.
Exhibition: Oct 30–Nov 22
Opening Reception: Thursday, October 30, 6–8 PM — all are welcome.
Location: Armstrong Spallumcheen Museum & Art Gallery
