“I❤U” Exhibition Featuring artworks by Kenzie Housego Curated by Evangeline Y Brooks
July 11 – August 10, 2024 LIFT lobby 1137 Dupont Street The installation is available to view outside of LIFT office hours from the Dupont Street address.
Kenzie Housego’s series I❤U explores contemporary courtship by investigating the evolving behaviors surrounding dating rituals from the past to the present. Colourful layered textile-based practice integrates technological elements to enable public engagement and dialogue. The work highlights the transmission, interpretation, and occasional misinterpretation of romantic communication through screens, examining how digital culture mediates these exchanges through coded symbols that may not always convey their intended meaning.
