Poster for Artist Talk with Johnathan Onyschuk

About this event

In this artist talk, Johnathan Onyschuk will discuss the ideas and processes behind Old Growth, his installation exploring the recurring image of the human face emerging from plant life and wood.Drawing from a collection of anonymous folk art “spirit carvings,” Onyschuk combines found sculptures into intricate basswood reliefs where individual faces merge into dense, shifting forms. The talk will share insight into the relationship between historical carving traditions, collective memory, and the enduring human impulse to find ourselves reflected in the natural world.Image: Johnathan Onyschuk: Old Growth, Project Space, 2026.
