The exhibition takes its title from the classic work by Austrian psychologist and scholar Bruno Bettelheim, who posited that children’s fairy tales provide for children an imaginative space in which to process their deepest fears and dread: the death of a parent, abandonment etc. Borrowing this paradigm, curator Sarah Milroy explores how contemporary artists use the strategy of enchantment to explore our contemporary experience of climate change, species and habitat loss, and environmental degradation. These are worlds turned inside out, yet we are drawn into the artists' imaginative visions to reflect on the place we find ourselves in as planet Earth’s rogue species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/article\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"shopify-section-template--19815490453667__product-recommendations\" class=\"shopify-section w-100\"\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"recommended\" class=\"product-recommendations\" data-url=\"\/recommendations\/products?section_id=template--19815490453667__product-recommendations\u0026amp;product_id=8016286777507\u0026amp;limit=4\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AGH Art Sales + Services","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51358524342589,"sku":"MCM-824363","price":35.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/4464\/1863\/files\/Screenshot2026-02-06163023.png?v=1771787747"},{"product_id":"white-elephant-pin-half-spin","title":"White Elephant Pin Half-Spin","description":"\u003cp\u003ePart of the Exhibition Shary Boyle: How We Are\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShary Boyle \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhite Elephant \u003c\/em\u003e(detail) 2021\u003cbr\u003ewool, jersey, cotton, metal snaps, aluminum, foam, textiles, porcelain, motor\u003cbr\u003e243.8 x 127 x 144.8cm\u003cbr\u003ePurchased through a grant from the Council of Canadian and American Relations made possible by the generous support of an anonymous donor, 2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003e©\u003c\/strong\u003eShary Boyle.

Today, artists and thinkers once again respond to a world marked by alienation, conflict, and fear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese times ask for another kind of vocabulary—one capable of holding contradictions, honouring complexity, and carrying us through the difficult work of speaking with both conviction and care. Making sense of our moment is painful, but not without hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShary Boyle wades into these charged spaces with an ethic of social justice and a deep belief in the transformative power of imagination. When she says, “I feel the need to create an alternate world, a vision of what might be magical or beautiful or fantastic about being human,” it is not an escape but a strategy of survival—a way to envision continuance in the face of rupture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the first time in Boyle’s thirty-year exhibition history,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow We Are\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003epresents a survey of her socio-political artworks. Created by the artist to reveal and comprehend the most harrowing complexities of our time—gendered violence, white supremacy, colonialism, war, authoritarianism, extinction, censorship, and on. We typically encounter these subjects through media, news analysis, and academic literature. That is, words.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut what of narrative images and objects made by hand? Fragile, imperfect, and undeniably human. There is no ‘authority’ to dazzle or diminish us. Instead, the artist’s vulnerability is a gesture of faith and trust, a reminder that care itself is a form of resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoyle seeks a way to better understand our systems and tendencies, while acknowledging our failures and harms honestly and with grace. Spending time with something crafted with deep personal care counters our disposable habits of scrolling, swiping, and erasing. It creates a reciprocal commitment between artist and viewer to think and feel together. It is an antidote to isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this way, Boyle’s practice draws our attention to urgent yet quietly normalized social and political ills, inviting us toward a collective turning. By lifting us beyond the confines of the everyday, she opens spaces where wonder might coexist with inquiry—where respectful conversation can deepen into a personal reckoning with our beliefs and unspoken longings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSomewhere within these imagined terrains lie the dreams of better selves and more just societies.

Today, artists and thinkers once again respond to a world marked by alienation, conflict, and fear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese times ask for another kind of vocabulary—one capable of holding contradictions, honouring complexity, and carrying us through the difficult work of speaking with both conviction and care. Making sense of our moment is painful, but not without hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShary Boyle wades into these charged spaces with an ethic of social justice and a deep belief in the transformative power of imagination. When she says, “I feel the need to create an alternate world, a vision of what might be magical or beautiful or fantastic about being human,” it is not an escape but a strategy of survival—a way to envision continuance in the face of rupture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the first time in Boyle’s thirty-year exhibition history,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eHow We Are\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003epresents a survey of her socio-political artworks.

Fragile, imperfect, and undeniably human. There is no ‘authority’ to dazzle or diminish us. Instead, the artist’s vulnerability is a gesture of faith and trust, a reminder that care itself is a form of resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoyle seeks a way to better understand our systems and tendencies, while acknowledging our failures and harms honestly and with grace. Spending time with something crafted with deep personal care counters our disposable habits of scrolling, swiping, and erasing.
