About this event

The tradition of gleaning, the practice of gathering what remains after harvest, reframes waste and discarded material as a source of creative and critical inquiry. Senior sculpture students worked with recovered and recycled materials from the City of Saskatoon's Material Recovery Centre to consider cycles of consumption, material culture and sustainability through assemblage sculpture. 

The Gleaners marks the first public event hosted at the Caswell Bus Barns, a heritage industrial building now emerging as one of Saskatoon's most distinctive arts and culture hubs. 

Art*Cycled is an exhibition presenting work by senior sculpture students from USask's School for the Arts. The series provides students with a public platform for ambitious, materially grounded practice while fostering meaningful connections between the university and the Saskatoon community. 

Senior sculpture students include:

Atrayee Basu
Jensen Canfield
Darwin Cowell
Shona Dietz
Maryanna Hardy
Kim Kargut
Christie Keller
Jaye Kovach
Amanda May
Ryan Richard
David Sanscartier
Ella Zentner

This event is organized by Ella Dawn McGeough, area chair of sculpture at USask School for the Arts, with support from USask's Office of Sustainability.
