Projects will explore the concept of "BLOSSOM”, exploring what it means for a community to grow and how its identity can remain genuine while experiencing development. BLOSSOM challenges the notion of stasis, asking whether death is the opposite of growth or if peace can be achieved for stillness. Is change the only constant? As you move through the art projects of Bloordale, we invite you to expand your view on development, and ask what types of growth is beneficial or cancerous.
