Dianne Bos borrows a phrase from Isaac Rosenberg\u2019s famous World War I poem Break of Day in the Trenches<\/em> for the title of this exhibition, which consists of extraordinary photographs taken in \u2018<\/span>no-man\u2019s land\u2019, amid the trenches of the former Western Front.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting in 2014, Bos <\/span>travelled through Belgium and France to sites where Canadian and Newfoundland troops had fought, using a variety of vintage and pinhole cameras to photograph the land a century after the Great War. On returning home to Calgary, Bos worked further with the images by incorporating objects from the battle sites \u2014 such as rocks, leaves, and a bullet \u2014 into her printing process. By scattering these objects over the paper during printing, as well as dodging, burning, and overlaying maps of stars, she produced layers of imagery that convey the emotional depth of her experience.\u00a0 As Bos says, these works \u201cmake the invisible visible,\u201d representing far more than the physical features of the land as it is today.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Sleeping Green<\/em> is not about the war itself. Instead, this exhibition explores how a harrowing historical event has become part of the fabric of our collective imagination.<\/span><\/p>\n
