SUMMARY:Hallway Gallery: The Human Moment by Dipankar Mukherjee
DESCRIPTION:Hallway Gallery: The Human Moment by Dipankar Mukherjee\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nLevel 4 Gallery\nApril 27 – May 25\, 2026\n8:00 AM – 8:00 PM (Closed Sundays) \nIn The Human Moment\, Calgary-based photographer Dipankar Mukherjee presents a series of images that explore fleeting\, unguarded interactions across everyday life. \nCaptured across diverse geographies—these photographs focus not on spectacle\, but on subtle\, often overlooked moments: a passing glance\, a solitary walk\, an unspoken exchange. Each image resists easy interpretation\, inviting viewers to pause and reflect—these photographs focus not on spectacle\, but on subtle\, often overlooked moments: a passing glance\, a solitary walk\, an unspoken exchange. Each image resists easy interpretation\, inviting viewers to pause and reflect. \nRather than telling complete stories\, the work offers fragments—open-ended and unresolved. Viewers are encouraged to engage with the images through their own experiences\, assumptions\, and perspectives. \nAt its core\, The Human Moment is an exploration of how we see one another. It quietly asks: What do we notice? What do we miss? And what happens when we truly stop to look? \nThis exhibition is designed not just to be viewed\, but to be experienced—creating space for reflection\, dialogue\, and connection. \n  \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Hallway Gallery: Long Story Short by Christina Yao with Alliance Française
DESCRIPTION:Hallway Gallery: Explosions of Curiosity by National AccessArts Centre\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nLevel 3 Gallery\nMay 5 – June 1\, 2026\n8:00 AM – 8:00 PM (Closed Sundays) \n  \n\n\nThe Alliance Française is delighted to host “Long Story Short” by Christina Yao. \nLong Story Short investigates the ongoing negotiation of power\, trust\, and vulnerability within intimate relationships. \nChristina constructs staged photographs that feel both authentic and entirely fictional\, with scenes built from fragments of shared experiences and her own relational hesitations. These images become a site where the boundaries of intimacy are tested\, exploring the tension between what is performed for the lens and what is instinctively revealed. What is long or short\, complete or unresolved\, is never fixed. It shifts with memory and time\, changing as we return to a relationship from a different perspective. In these private spaces\, connection unfolds as something remembered\, imagined\, and performed\, shaped by the desire to be seen and the resistance to full exposure. Even in closeness\, moments of distance remain\, where feelings go unspoken and loneliness exists alongside connection. \n\n\nAbout Christina Yao\nChristina Yao is a China-born\, Calgary-based artist working in photography\, video\, and installation. Drawing from her experience living across the U.S.\, Colombia\, and Canada\, she explores relationships\, identity\, and place through a cross-cultural lens. Yao holds a Bachelor of Design in Photography (with Distinction) from the Alberta University of the Arts. She was shortlisted for the Royal Photographic Society International Photography Exhibition 167 (2026)\, and is a 2025 Critical Mass Top 200 finalist and a 2024 LensCulture Portrait Awards finalist. Her work was featured in the Emerging Photographers Showcase at the 2024 Exposure Photography Festival. Her work has been presented internationally at Sotheby’s Institute of Art (New York) and ASC Studio (London\, UK)\, and at Contemporary Calgary\, The Marion Nicoll Gallery\, TRUCK Contemporary Art\, Stride Gallery\, cSPACE\, The Bows\, and Werklund Centre. \nWebsite: www.christina-yao.com \n  \n
