Organized by Cambridge Art Galleries
Cambridge Art Galleries is excited to present a new site-specific installation in the Queen’s Square lobby by Hamilton-based artist Natalie Hunter. Working across photography, installation, sculpture, and the moving image, Hunter is mainly known for her multilayered and experiential photo-based installations on transparent film.
You might as well try and hold the sun captures the banks of the Grand River and Cambridge Pollinator Preserve in a meditation on the cyclical synergies of nature and elemental forces of light and time. Activating the Queen’s Square south-facing windows, along with a collection of vitrines and windows scattered throughout the building, the work unfolds slowly according to the rhythms of the sun, casting latent images and soft, colourful light on the surrounding architecture.
