Summary
The City Hall of St. Catharines accomplishes essential work. The exhibition Soft Walls imagines a restful transitional space in its hallways. Curators Catherine Parayre and Shawn Serfas present paintings using soft floral and figurative patterns that are both complex and soothing to create a relaxed, pleasant atmosphere. Inspired by decorative art practices, these suggest a meditative and carefree environment and are accompanied by soft-spoken fragments of texts.
