Blue Sky Kingdom: An Epic Family<br />
Journey into the Heart of the Himalaya.<br />
Bruce Kirkby is a Canadian writer,<br />
photographer and adventurer. Blue<br />
Sky Kingdom is a warm and unforgettable<br />
portrait of a family letting go<br />
of the known world to encounter an<br />
unfamiliar one filled with rich possibilities<br />
and new understandings. We<br />
follow Bruce and his family’s remarkable<br />
three months journey, where they<br />
end up living amongst the Lamas of<br />
Zanskar Valley, a forgotten appendage<br />
of the ancient<br />
Tibetan empire,<br />
and one of the last<br />
places on earth<br />
where Himalayan<br />
Buddhism is still<br />
practiced freely<br />
in its original<br />
setting.<br />

ARCTIC OUTFLOW Claire Dibble<br />
The culmination of an artist’s residency aboard a ship sailing in the Arctic<br />

embedded in even the most remote landscapes on Earth.<br />
Using photo transfer images, bits of marine rubbish collected on shorelines,<br />
and found rope Claire Dibble’s work expresses a commentary on consumerism,<br />
acceptance, and seeking beauty in our current situation.<br />
