Bare | Queen’s park gallery
“Bare” is a solo art show that offers a unique and intimate experience by local Artist Fiona Tang. Tang invites viewers to discover hidden animals with the use of blacklight flashlights. The show reveals a glimpse into Tang’s mental struggles in the most bare form.
“Bare” invites viewers to get close and experience the artwork. At first glance, the atmosphere of each drawing seems empty, and bare but the viewers are given the key – a blacklight flashlight, to unlock what’s hidden within each drawing. Through the use of blacklight flashlights, animals emerge from the dark. These hidden animals represent Tang’s mental health condition of feeling trapped with anxiety and depression in the past year. Tang has felt robbed, invisible, and silenced by her own mental health, and the struggles are buried beneath the surface. One that struggles with mental health may look physically healthy, but are unwell inside. Tang is often known for her large-scale drawings of powerful and fierce animals such as tigers, however, this show takes a different approach where the fighting animals are caged in the depths of the drawings. Come take a dive into the world of invisible.

distant tales | deer lake gallery
Distant Tales is a duo show with Fiona Tang and Ceramicist Kathleen McGiveron. In this exhibition, they explores a variety of the animals that roam in and around the Pacific Northwest. The familiar creatures however, don’t look exactly as one may recall. There is a play on myths and tales that alter their appearances. Each animal represents an element (Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire).
