Through Her Eyes brings together fourteen women artists from different eras working in a variety of media focused on landscape and the human and cultural environment. The works, stemming from the 1930s to the present, include painting, sculpture, print-making, photography and video. Many of the these were created in and around Kelowna, and all of them are from the permanent collection of the Kelowna Art Gallery. The exhibition examines different approaches to landscape from sketches to plain air painting, imagined landscapes, human-made objects, factory workers, cowboys and abstracted environments. Together, the works reflect on place and how women view and depict their surroundings, subjects, and ideas in ways that are meditative, exploratory, spiritual, and celebratory.
