Organized by Patrick Mahon

The exhibition brought together a select group of artists to highlight ideas and approaches that engage with ‘wind’ via the metaphorical, the phenomenological, and the poetic. At the centre of the exhibition was a selection of artifacts that helped to locate the project in a terrain where artistic concerns and technological experimentation meet. A vast collection of miniature white plastic model buildings used in wind testing at the Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel at Western University in London, Ontario, were be installed as a silent and inanimate spatial poem.
