As Waves Break Exhibition & Artist Talk

This Town Is Small presents an artist talk with JoAnna Howlett on March 4 from 5:30–7:30 pm. Howlett will speak about As Waves Break, their solo exhibition exploring superstition, fishing and sailing traditions, family legacy, and gendered labour.

The talk will take place at This Town Is Small, located in The Arts Guild, and will be followed by a Q&A.

Howlett is an emerging interdisciplinary artist and lobster fisher whose work reflects on tradition and superstition in the Atlantic lobster fishery, using industry-specific materials such as recycled rope, concrete, and lobster trap lumber, alongside photo and video to create installations and sculptures.

As Waves Break is currently on view in the Hilda Woolnough Gallery at The Arts Guild until March 26.
