Winter
Winter
Winter is a multi-channel video work that traces an unstable passage through snow and uncertainty: the narrator walks uphill through a whiteout where ground and sky become indistinguishable. Through an intimate voiceover, the work moves between the experience of a mother’s disappearing memories, the porous body of a temporary home, and larger conditions of collective disappearance. The work asks what remains when the boundaries between self and environment begin to dissolve, when presence is understood not as permanence but as a fragile act of circulation and maintenance.
About the Artist
Sherri Hay works across sculpture, installation, and moving-image. Currently completing an MFA in Fine Arts at the University of Waterloo, her practice investigates perception and the conditions through which landscapes and histories become visible or disappear. She uses video, found materials, environmental forces, and time-based processes to create installations that invite sustained attention to shifting relationships between bodies, land, and atmosphere. Hay has exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art (Toronto), Christopher Cutts Gallery (Toronto), OBORO (Montreal), and Megumi Ogita Gallery (Japan), and has undertaken residencies in Iceland and Denmark.
