These Are My Disasters
Cast glass and mixed media installation by Sacha Kopelow
Runs to Feb 28

 STATEMENT
"This installation of illuminated cast glass sculpture ponders the complexities of newfound love and also disenchantment.  The viewer will find tiny moments of emotion or revelation amongst the components of the larger view-scape.  The objective is to draw focus to small pockets of beauty, slight footholds of meaning buried amidst an inconclusive narrative.  This opportunity for the viewer to hone in, be quietly mindful, and appreciate small gifts is particularly poignant at this time.  The COVID pandemic has reduced our worlds to individual, isolated introversions.  We learn to see and feel differently, on a finer scale.  We find comfort in little charms. "
 

BIO
Sacha Kopelow is primarily a glass caster and metalsmith; she also paints in oil-glaze and draws in silverpoint.  Sacha utilizes the translucent qualities of glass and glaze to achieve an ethereal, gemlike colour quality, contributing to an intimate and vulnerable sensibility in her work.  Greatly influenced by the intersection of her experience as disabled and her interest in social justice, she explores loneliness, belonging, feminism, minutiae, animal sensitivities, and the nature and collection of life moments.  Sacha holds a BFA from NSCAD University and BA in International Development/Environmental Studies from University of Winnipeg.
