This exhibition by Quebec-based artist duo Richard Ibghy and Marilou Lemmens examines the human and nonhuman body as sites of measurement, performance, and value. Utilizing the visual language of modern science, including diagrams, charts, and schematics, the artists translate bodily labour and lived experience into abstract models and data. Through video pieces and sculptures, the works explore the tension between quantified behaviour and the irreducible nature of the body. The exhibition features works such as Taming Chance and Anthology of Performance Pieces for Animals, which challenge the notions of human exceptionalism and the limits of epistemological control. By presenting models of non-productivity and granting agency to material and animal bodies, the artists critique the systems that reduce bodies to data, variables, and units of labour, highlighting the ethical stakes of how bodies are instrumentalized as resources to be optimized.

Ghazaleh Avarzamani’s exhibition, 'Churn, Earn, Burn and then Return,' investigates how familiar objects and environments, such as playgrounds and games, mirror and reinforce social and political power structures. By recontextualizing items like nursery rhymes, manuals, and Monopoly, Avarzamani exposes the mechanisms of control, obedience, and hierarchy embedded within educational and entertainment systems. Her work challenges viewers to recognize how these structures shape daily life and collective fantasy. The installation incorporates sculptures, textiles, and archival objects, utilizing butter as both a material and a metaphor for labor, economic volatility, and imperial expansion. Inspired by the logic of Monopoly, the exhibition links the game to themes of territorial extraction and the gamification of ownership. Through this critical examination, the artist highlights paradoxes in social methodologies and encourages a space for critical awareness, disruption, and refusal regarding systems of institutional power.

Now, as strange occurrences begin surfacing once again throughout the village, guests are called back to uncover what really happened and help stop the darkness from spreading once more. Guided by lantern light, travellers will follow unfolding paths through the village, each revealing different pieces of the town’s haunted history. Along the way, guests will solve puzzles, uncover hidden relics, decipher occult writings, encounter unsettling characters, confront chilling foes, and piece together the truth hidden deep within the shadows of 1885.
