The Sum of All

Black is said to be “the sum of all colours” when a black colour is obtained from a mixture of various pigments. Black is also said to be the “absence of colour” when all light radiation is removed. Black is a colour that results from the absence or complete absorption of visible light. To be all and absent in the same breath is a rare and unique positionality.

In this exhibition, the concepts of Indigeneity and Blackness are explored through visual and performance-based arts such as film, dance, jewelry and poetry. The Sum of All is a celebration of the lived experiences of the featured artists and guest curator who represent multiple cultural groups.

Visit Us

We are located at 639 Hornby Street (between Georgia Street and Dunsmuir Street) in Downtown Vancouver. We are a little hard to find as our entrance is in a courtyard. Look for the sandwich board on Hornby Street and climb the short stairway. 

A wheelchair accessible path is also located between Christ Church Cathedral and Cathedral Place on Georgia Street. This takes you through the courtyard and to the Gallery entrance.
