Elif Saydam: Eviction Notice
29 September 2023 – 6 January 2024 | Oakville Galleries in Gairloch Gardens
In their expanded painting practice, Berlin-based artist Elif Saydam examines the formation and judgment of aesthetic taste and the forces that influence them. Eviction Notice, Saydam’s first institutional exhibition in Canada, draws upon traditions of ornamentation outside of the European canon to consider dynamics of desire that are extended to objects and social spaces. Saydam will present new works encompassing painting, textile, installation, and photography that mine the decorative as a methodical tool for contextualizing sociopolitical narratives. Set in the domestic, suburban backdrop of Gairloch Gardens, a former home, the exhibition extrapolates the material qualities of built structures to articulate broader topics such as social mobility and collective aspirations within an increasingly gentrified world.
