Objects for Adaptation and Resilience

Kate Tessier invited eight Artists-in-Residence at Harbourfront Centre to collaborate in creating a new collective body of work responding to the concepts of adaptation and resilience. Each artist was invited to present a selection of their current work to display along with new work created in collaboration. The result showcases the impressive bodies of work being developed at Harbourfront Centre while demonstrating the new possibilities enabled through collaboration.

Objects for Adaptation and Resilience is a collaborative installation of craft and design representing the development of a process for Kate Tessier’s practice, Kilowatt Kate in which co-design and collaboration converge to respond generatively to the human predicament. 

On display at Harbourfront Centre in downtown Toronto from January 24th, 2025, to March 30th, 2025
