Brian Lye exhibition opens<br />

at Oxygen<br />

Oxygen Art Centre welcomed<br />

Brian Lye as Artist-in-Residence<br />

throughout<br />

December and January where<br />

he created works for the exhibition<br />

Above Above Below<br />

Below, on view from <strong>Feb</strong>ruary<br />

20 to March 20 March,<br />

Saturdays between 1 and<br />

5pm by appointment only.<br />

Lye is an internationally<br />

renowned filmmaker, artist,<br />

and educator who lives and<br />

works in <strong>Nelson</strong>. His practice<br />

is focused in analogue<br />

film production, merging the<br />

everyday with formal experimentations<br />

in play, special<br />

effects, and psychogeography.<br />

Lye’s current body of work<br />

begins with crystals. Having<br />

conducted research for<br />

an experimental documentary<br />

on crystalline minerals<br />

across scientific, mining, and<br />

healing fields, Lye investigates<br />

the human and natural<br />

relation to crystals through<br />

discussion-based research.<br />

Interviewing experts on crystals<br />

from the region forms<br />

the foundational material for<br />

Lye’s experiments in 16mm<br />

analogue film.<br />

Fascinated by the semiprecious<br />

stones and their<br />

capacity for transmission,<br />

amplification, and new age<br />

applications, Lye draws upon<br />

his background in filmmaking<br />

and installation to<br />

create an immersive body<br />

of work on view in the exhibition,<br />

Above Above Below<br />

Below.<br />

During his residency Lye<br />

experimented with traditional<br />

16mm film titling<br />

techniques, growing crystals,<br />

developing film, and creating<br />

a series of projection<br />

installations.<br />

Due to the ongoing pandemic<br />

Oxygen Art Centre<br />

will be welcoming individuals<br />

and groups (up to 6,<br />

same household) to visit the<br />

exhibition by creating an<br />

appointment, below. Visitors<br />

will be greeted by a projectionist<br />

who will assist in the<br />

presentation of the 16mm<br />

film installations. Appointments<br />

run up to 20 minutes<br />

each to allow for cleaning of<br />

the space before and afterwards.<br />

Visitors are required<br />

to comply with and review<br />

Oxygen’s COVID-19 prevention<br />

protocols prior to their<br />

appointment.<br />

WHY ARE YOU<br />

STILL RENTING?<br />

Record low interest rates make<br />

home ownership more affordable<br />

than ever. Your mortgage<br />

payment will likely be less<br />

than your rent. Government<br />

programs help with the down<br />

payment and there are even<br />

more perks if you are a first<br />

time home buyer.<br />

CHECK IT OUT!!<br />

Joni met with me long before<br />

I put my home on the<br />

market. We got the game<br />

plan together and then<br />

put it into action. I sold<br />

my home and bought my<br />

new home without a hitch!<br />

Many thanks to Joni and<br />

Nikki. You are the best!<br />

- Cindy<br />
