Hot Dates: Ross C. Kelly Photo Collages at Art Beatus

“Vancouver Art Gallery” photo collage by Ross C. Kelly

July 20 to September 14.

Forget the kitschy Vancouver postcards. Instead, check out Ross C. Kelly’s large-scale photo montages during his self-titled exhibition at Art Beatus. The local artist shoots the photos from a single vantage point over a period of days or weeks, then reduces the images and arranges them in a collage. The result? You’ll see subtle to drastic changes in texture, depth, light, weather and urban use. Stand farther away to see a cohesive whole; peer closer to see the tiny fragments that make a city unique. —Kristina Urquhart
