==========================
What is it to be invasive? What comes to mind? For some it may be invasive species, for others it may be invasive illness or medical procedures, and for still others it may be intrusion on personal space (be it another person in our physical space or unwanted thoughts in our own head). Whatever comes to mind, something invasive tends to be aggressive and takes over where they are not welcome or cause harm.
Invasive seeks to explore the meaning behind the concept; how do we come to terms with something invasive; can we transform something invasive? If so, how?
===============
ABOUT THE CURATOR
Steph Kincade (they them) is a sculptural embroidery and fibre artist. A settler in K’jipuktuk/Halifax NS, they hail originally from Menaquesk/Saint John, NB. Their long-standing love affair with marine biology and the tiny worlds around us are the main inspiration for their work. Exploring their surroundings in the woods and along the shoreline, primarily in the Atlantic provinces, has been a pastime since childhood.
Past work includes MicroWorlds, a sculptural hand embroidery collection exploring the small and microscopic, and Stranglehold, a small collection of wearable art pieces inspired by toxic algae blooms.
Their current work explores the addition of freehand machine embroidery to their sculptural works, both mounted/wall hung, and freestanding. Current work also explores the use of sustainably foraged and invasive plant fibres.
