SUMMARY:The Polygon Gallery: Tania Willard: Photolithics
DESCRIPTION:The Polygon Gallery presents Tania Willard: Photolithics from March 7–May 24\, 2026. The exhibition is Willard’s first since winning the 2025 Sobey Art Award — Canada’s biggest contemporary art prize — and is her largest solo show to date. Photolithics\, a portmanteau of ancient words for “light” and “stone\,” highlights Willard’s evolving photographic practice\, in which the sun and the land play a vital role beyond the surveillance or spectacle of nature. For The Polygon\, she devises a distinctive treatment for the gallery’s windows based on her research into Salish basketry. Passing through patterns of cedar root\, the sun’s rays cast a warm protective glow\, or “safelight\,” on all the works in the gallery and the people coming to witness. Other works in the 10-year survey include “Only Available Light” (2016)\, which is being presented inside a purpose-built c7ískten̓ (kekuli or underground pit house)\, “Anthro(a)pologizing” (2018)\, “Vestige” (2022)\, and more. \nAdmission to The Polygon Gallery is by donation\, courtesy of BMO Financial Group.

SUMMARY:The Polygon Gallery: Tania Willard: Photolithics
DESCRIPTION:The Polygon Gallery presents Tania Willard: Photolithics from March 7–May 24\, 2026. The exhibition is Willard’s first since winning the 2025 Sobey Art Award — Canada’s biggest contemporary art prize — and is her largest solo show to date. Photolithics\, a portmanteau of ancient words for “light” and “stone\,” highlights Willard’s evolving photographic practice\, in which the sun and the land play a vital role beyond the surveillance or spectacle of nature. For The Polygon\, she devises a distinctive treatment for the gallery’s windows based on her research into Salish basketry. Passing through patterns of cedar root\, the sun’s rays cast a warm protective glow\, or “safelight\,” on all the works in the gallery and the people coming to witness. Other works in the 10-year survey include “Only Available Light” (2016)\, which is being presented inside a purpose-built c7ískten̓ (kekuli or underground pit house)\, “Anthro(a)pologizing” (2018)\, “Vestige” (2022)\, and more. \nAdmission to The Polygon Gallery is by donation\, courtesy of BMO Financial Group.
