This presentation marks Rewuski’s first exhibition in Yorkton. This event is free and everyone is welcome. Light refreshments will be available. It is on view until May 24, 2025.
In darkness, light takes on new meaning—softening the edges of perception, inviting wonder, stillness, and connection. Only in Dark the Light is a quiet exploration of sensory experience, a space to slow down, breathe, and simply be.
Rooted in the principles of Multi-Sensory Environments (MSEs)—spaces designed to foster sensory engagement—this work reframes their therapeutic function through an artistic lens. Projected light paintings—created from hand-painted 35mm slides and layered focal distortions—become static images within translucent lightboxes, snapshots of a shifting installation. Video installations synchronize in-camera imagery with binaural beats and sound frequencies, while a slow-turning chandelier of crystals—an interpretation of the mirrorball—scatters shifting constellations of light.
Neither wholly immersive nor passive, these works create space rather than fill it—holding a tension between structure and dissolution, stillness and motion. The works are adaptable, shaped by their environment and those who engage with them. Sound resonates beyond the audible, and colour moves beyond the fixed image. Above all, Only in Dark the Light is an invitation to experience—without analysis, without expectation. To let light and sound settle in the body, to notice the subtle shifts in perception, to find moments of quiet attunement. In the dark, the light abounds.
The artist is thankful for the support of Canada Council for the Arts and SK Arts.
