Opening Reception–Diane Borsato: A Clean Place to Swim

Please join us for the opening reception of Diane Borsato: A Clean Place to Swim with the artist in attendance.

In A Clean Place to Swim, Diane Borsato presents new and past works that explore the liberating, intimate, and communal possibilities of being in the water. Acts of teaching and learning, encounters across backgrounds, as well as our shared right to clean, wild environments to swim in will be brought together under a title drawn from a phrase by Alexander Wilson from The Culture of Nature.

Walter Phillips Gallery gratefully acknowledges the ongoing support of the Canada Council for the Arts and the Province of Alberta through Alberta Foundation for the Arts.
