"Vessels for Spheres" by Rob Toller
2024-04-04 - 2024-04-14 | Art Gallery Kimberley at “The Laundromat”, 167 Deer Park Avenue, Kimberley
THE ART OF HONOURING THE BEAUTY OF NATURE
“Vessels for Spheres”
Using found objects, mostly natural forms discovered during his wanderings, Kimberley-based sculptor extraordinaire Rob Toller has created a collection of small sculptures that honour the exquisite beauty of nature. Rob is excited to announce his upcoming solo art exhibit “Vessels for Spheres”, open to inspire visitors at Art Gallery Kimberley in BC’s Best Small Town from April 4-14, 2014.
Through his intentional wanderings in the natural world, Rob draws inspiration from the fascinating surfaces and lines provided by nature. His approach to working with found objects is focused on honouring and highlighting their intrinsic beauty, with little alteration or imposition. Rob explains, “I’m drawn to raw, organic textures and surfaces, and I’m a big fan of rust. I often incorporate natural elements like wood and stone into my metal sculptures. The balance and rhythm of natural forms guide my art, allowing the materials to speak for themselves.“ Ultimately, Rob’s artworks serve as a showcase of the beauty of the natural world as its own sculpture gallery, filled with endless inspiration.
Rob’s creative journey began in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies where, according to Rob, “Regular explorations of the front ranges in all seasons led to the discovery of spectacular root structures, weathered by years in the elements – chinook winds, fire and weather extremes.” Recognising the necessity to elevate these natural sculptures with complementary bases so they can be presented and fully appreciated, Rob took up welding and blacksmithing, attracted by metal’s strength and contrasting properties. As a self-taught artist fuelled by curiosity, Rob increasingly gravitated towards working with metal and became intrigued by the possibilities of this medium. Amassing an eclectic collection of found metal objects, he creates one-of-a-kind figurative sculptures while preserving the natural patina of these objects as a historical record of their life. “The long history of mining and forestry in The Kootenays provides for a wide variety of materials to be gathered; industrial salvage scattered in many unexpected places, hidden and sometimes buried treasures”, Rob reflects.
Rob’s biggest challenge often lies in safely harvesting and transporting these pieces back to his studio. You may happen upon him in the early morning hours, walking remote trails while lugging unwieldy pieces of wood, steel or stone. The discovery of new materials and shapes serves as a catalyst for his creative exploration. Rob is drawn to adventure both in the natural world and the realm of creativity, always wondering “What if I …?”
Within this exhibit, Rob joins together his enjoyment in the creative process with his love for nature. By incorporating spherical shapes, such as stones and steel balls, Rob introduces contrast, while alluding to the start of spring and new life. His return to using pewter adds a dynamic element, creating unique forms with each casting.
Don’t miss this opportunity to surround yourself with the beauty of Rob’s sculptures — a heartfelt celebration of the natural world and the creative process. Please join us at Art Gallery Kimberley from April 4-14, 2024. Rob’s exhibit welcomes visitors from Thursday to Sunday, 9:30 until 4:30 and from Monday to Wednesday by appointment. Everyone is invited to the closing reception and artist talk on Sunday, April 14, 2024 from 3 to 5 pm.

‘PULP’ exhibition opening
2024-04-05 19:00 - 21:00 (America/Vancouver) | Nelson Museum, Archives & Gallery, 502 Vernon Street, Nelson, V1L 4E7, Canada
PULP is the latest iteration in a series of medium-centric group exhibitions, focused on a common theme – in this case, paper – that highlights each artist’s interpretation of the medium. PULP opens Friday, April 5 at the Nelson Museum, Archives & Gallery, and runs through July 27.

In the hands of artists from across Canada, the artworks that embody PULP speak to personal, regional, socio-political, and historic symbology; seen in the feminist forms of Gathie Falk and Badanna Zack, with an Indigenous perspective through the work of Edward Poitras, through the revolt and response of Mia Feuer, the masks of Miya Turnbull, and the poetic/historical approach of Susan Andrews Grace.

Mini Sculptural Vases with Becky
2024-04-05 19:00 - 21:00 (America/Edmonton) | 601 1st Ave, Fernie BC
Our instructor Becky is a student at Glasgow school of the arts in Scotland. She has years of experience moulding, casting and working with clay. She is excited to share her knowledge with you!
In this fun introductory session into hand building clay, guided by Becky, you’ll get to create your very own mini sculptural vase.
Vases will be fired with white or clear glaze, and participants will be notified via email once their pieces are ready. Wait period is usually 8 weeks.
Cost is $55 and includes materials.
What is handbuilding?
Handbuilding is a ceramics technique that allows you to create forms with clay and your hands, without using a throwing wheel. Before ceramicists invented the wheel, handbuilding was the only way they could create functional and artistic ceramic forms. There are 3 main handbuilding pottery techniques of pinching, coiling, and slab rolling. All you need to get started are your clay, your hands, and a few simple tools.
While handbuilding is as simple as using your hands to form an object out of clay, it encompasses three main techniques and forming methods. Once you have mastered pinching, coiling, and slab building, you can make just about anything out of clay.
Pre registration is required.
