Marla Hladys Rooms exhibit will open at the Gairloch Gardens location and Denyse Thomasos Kingdom Come exhibit will open at the Centennial Square gallery. Both artists will be available on open- ing day to chat with people. From 2:30- 3:30 p.m. people will be able to meet and greet with Thomasos at the Centennial Square location, and from 3:30-5 p.m. people will have a chance to speak with Hlady at Gairloch Gardens. Hlady is a Toronto multi-disciplinary artist who explores the mechanics and expressive possibilities of structure and sound. Her multimedia installation works to draw attention to the generally unno- ticed sonic elements of Gairloch estate, encouraging viewers to see sound. To honour the 40th anniversary of Sheridan Colleges art and art history program, the alumnus Thomasos was invited to create a site-specific wall paint- ing at the gallery in collaboration with the schools current and recently gradu- ated students. The resulting work com- bines the visual properties of indigenous dwellings and eco-friendly designs to create what the artists call a green uto- pian kingdom. Rooms closes on Nov. 6 and Kingdom Come runs until Nov. 13. For more information, gallery addresses and hours of operation, visit www.oakvillegalleries.com.
