About the Exhibition:

Giving ourselves the space to be soft and silly during these times is a radical act and deserves some attention!

HOT 4 THE MOMENT will be taking over the Alberta Printmakers Main Gallery with NOTICE ME!, a printed and quilted construction site. THE FIX-ITS is a parody performance, and installation work assuming the characters of a multi-talented duo of contract workers who critique systems of oppression and misogyny within professional spaces through hard work, physical labor and community care. Getting to work as THE FIX-ITS required the proper OHS approved signage, designating spaces to be soft and silly with yourself. This installation is the accumulation of the FIX-ITS body of work and will consist of the quilted signage used in our FIX-ITS performances, our constructed light box art crate signs, screenprints, and textile work.

Georgia Dawkin and Drew Pardy are the two halves of the friendship heart necklace that is HOT 4 THE MOMENT. A creative collective, HOT 4 THE MOMENT developed as a way for Georgia Dawkin and Drew Pardy to combine common themes within their work, and to provide a space for play within their art practices.

HOT 4 THE MOMENT has exhibited in Eastern Edge Gallery (NL), Neutral Ground Artist Run Centre (SK), designed sets for Lawnya Vawnya Music Festival (NL), and performed at CB Nuit (NL), and the Atlantic Arts Symposium (NB). They were the 2024 Elbow Room Artists in Residence at The Rooms (NL) and the VANL Emerging Artists of the Year in 2024. Both Georgia and Drew are currently based in St. John’s, NL and have received their BFAs from Grenfell Campus, Memorial University.
