As Far As I Can See, College Art Gallery

May 15, 2026 – August 21, 2026
College Art Gallery
Curated by Leah Taylor

As far as I can see is a solo exhibition by Saskatoon-based artist Troy Gronsdahl. The exhibition brings together bodies of work that have been developed durationally over a span of 15 years, including two major series: When the cosmos aligned, if only briefly and largely unnoticed and Ways of Looking. Working across diverse media including text, photography, object, video and sound, Gronsdahl employs materials with aesthetic restraint and subtle intervention. He draws attention to the ways one seeks deeper meaning through nature, contemplation and poetics.
