Sally's curation of Woodlot: The 3rd KW|AG Biennial opens tonight (Wednesday) and a few of us are driving to Waterloo (or Kitchener, or a combination of both, whatever, I love car rides, are we there yet?) to see the show and deliver all the somewhat repellent and creepy perved-out hugs that I know you want to send to her.

This group exhibition celebrates visual art practice in the Region of Waterloo and the Counties of Wellington, Brant, Oxford and Perth. Guest Curator Sally McKay brings together the work of 14 artists in the 3rd installment of the eagerly anticipated KW|AG Biennial. Representing the emerging and established, Woodlot offers a focused look at contemporary art production in the region.

Southwestern Ontario is not a wilderness. It is a cultivated landscape of agriculture and industry, dissected by major highways and pressured by the sad tedium of urban sprawl. And yet, for anyone who has spent time in the region, the experience of nature runs deep and strong. In spring, the rivers Nith and Grand swell and threaten to overflow their banks. Killdeer and meadowlarks stake their claim on summer fields while red-tailed hawks circle the sky, striking fear into the hearts of tiny mammals down below. Mourning doves dot the telephone wires, and usher in the evenings with soft sad hoots. In autumn, the woodlots explode in dazzling colour, and the wide white fields of winter are laced with the shadowy tracks of rabbits and coyotes.

As humans, we have come to a point when our responsibility for climate change simply cannot be ignored. In this context, the concept of "regional artist" carries much more importance than a postal code. Woodlot is not an overtly political exhibition, and yet all of the artists, in their own way, are deeply engaged with the reciprocal relationship between humans and the natural world. Some of the works are joyful, some are scientific, some are angry, some are funny, some are sad, and some are telling stories. Together, the artists in this diverse exhibition probe at the role of art in expressing an historic, cultural, and spiritual sense of place.
