About the exhibitions

For Object Permanence Bri has developed a personal project examining the relationship between objects and memory, connecting generations of her family through unlikely treasures. Bri’s signature bright colours and playful aesthetic elicit common memories of childhood. Collections of doll hair brushes, shells collected on the beach by her grandparents, and pieces of board games are common place and yet exquisitely familiar, capable of transporting us back to our own birthday parties and beach trips. 

While easily disregarded, Bri’s attention to these objects sheds light on their relationships to our bodies, every object held by tiny hands. At the same time, Bri speaks about the joys and the struggles of parenthood, and the overload of information, parenting hacks, theories of childhood development and pasta necklaces that come along with modern parenting.
