My great grandmother was a beautiful beader, my grandmother could bead, my mom can kind of, and I can barely. It’s All So Incredibly Loud talks about having the knowledge of a historical expression inside of you but not having direct access – hence the two mediums converging physically inside the frame. Thinking about how I can utilize beadwork in a way that also represents the overwhelming nature of being alive.

Jake KimbleVancouver, British Columbia
Jake Kimble is a multidisciplinary Chipewyan (Dëne Sųłıné) artist and curator from Treaty 8 territory in the Northwest Territories whose practice revolves around acts of self-care, self-repair, and gender-based ideological refusal. Using a funny bone as a tool, Kimble excavates themes of existentialism, narcissism, and the strange. By acting as the protagonist in their own visual storytelling and documented ceremony, we are invited as an audience to examine the absurdities that exist within the everyday in order to exhale, unclench, and even chuckle in the spaces where laughter is often lost.
