Following the fire that destroyed St. Anne's Anglican Church in 2024\, the building exists in a state of becoming\, marked by loss\, yet filled with possibility. This exhibition inhabits a space between what was and what may yet be\, while also fulfilling a desire to reconnect with its community both religious and secular as it has long done.\nThe works in this exhibition explore themes of renewal\, resilience\, and memory\, while the altered architecture of St. Anne's serves as both setting and collaborator. This church without a roof allows light\, weather\, and sky to enter the space\, dissolving the boundary between inside and outside\, poignantly serving as a symbol for that which cannot be contained.  ​\nFire also plays a prominent part in this exhibition\, both as a force of destruction and regeneration. Fire clears\, reveals\, and reshapes. It leaves behind traces of what once existed while creating the conditions for something new to emerge. The works gathered here respond to this paradox\, reflecting on change not as an end\, but as a continuous process of becoming.\n*Where Walls Meet Sky *is an invitation to pause within that process\, to consider how places carry memory\, how communities endure\, and how renewal often begins in the very moment when certainty gives way to openness.\n\nRui Pimenta\, Exhibition Curator\n\n
