Rise/Fall explores the interplay of the human body and the landscape, drawing from works from the Kelowna Art Gallery’s Permanent Collection. This exhibition highlights the ongoing dialogue between people and their environments, demonstrating how artistic approaches have evolved while maintaining this fundamental connection. Rise/Fall invites visitors to think critically about how the land shapes, and is shaped by human presence and activity.

Incorporating sculpture, installation, video, fibre arts, painting, drawing, photography, and printmaking, Rise/Fall features the work of prominent Canadian artists such as A. Y. Jackson, Daphne Odjig, Gordon Smith, and Susan Point. This exhibition also celebrates the work of internationally recognized contemporary artists from British Columbia, such as Christos Dikeakos, Germaine Koh, Ho Tam, and Samuel Roy-Bois. From meticulous renderings of the human figure to expansive portrayals of the British Columbia landscape and beyond, this exhibition prompts an examination of the ways in which our bodies and the landscapes we inhabit mutually inform and reflect one another.
