Portraits of Time and Place

Kristine Zingeler is a Calgary based artist who has been researching and documenting the collection at the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller and the land at the Kiyooka Ohe Arts Centre in Springbank, west of Calgary as a way of exploring not only time but place.

Ceramic sculptures act as monuments to the textures, colours and gestures of her research; a sort of reef that references specific place and vast history. The photographic collages become windows to this immense past and also the artist’s own tiny history within it.
