EXHIBITION EVENT
Cindy Baker Performs with Scott Smallwood
Things I've Forgotten
Saturday, June 7, 2025
Starting at 2 PM
Things I've Forgotten is based on Baker's childhood memories of abduction and includes an endurance performance in which Baker pedals an adult-sized Big Wheel tricycle to power a speaker. Baker explains that pushing her body to its limits serves to exorcise long-buried trauma.
Things I've Forgotten requires the artist to continually spin her wheels to power the dream soundtrack, never advancing beyond trauma. Like Baker's use of the cutesy signifiers of childhood, dreams are absurd, disarming and unsettling.
Who is more powerless or more free than the child or the dreamer?

Cindy Baker with Scott Smallwood: 10 Years Dreaming
June 5 - August 2, 2025
Opening Reception: Friday, June 6, 5 - 7 PM
Artist Performance: Things I've Forgotten: Saturday, June 7 starting at 2 PM
Cindy Baker has spent ten years dreaming and recording her dreams.
Even in sleep, Baker's activities centre around the artworld and are tinged with chagrin. In her artwork Dream Come True, she recalls dreaming of a plastic coin imprinted with the image of a cartoon duck she purchased on layaway from a commercial gallery: "I went to pick it up and pay for it, and it was $10. I wondered why I hadn't been able to pay that amount years ago but realized that we didn't have PayPal that long ago, and that I'd never carry that kind of cash."
Baker and collaborator Scott Smallwood animate objects and scenarios first glimpsed in the artists' dreams with sound, electronics and performance with her body. Banal yet unworldly objects—ranging from a sink overflowing with ropes of jewels to an enormous inflatable duck-shaped chair—are accompanied by a ticker board spelling out the contents of Baker's dream journal and a continuous and evolving tapestry of voices created by Smallwood... read more below.

Heartland Artists' Guild
Art from the Heart
June 4 - July 2, 2025
Heartland Artists’ Guild was established in 1980 by 16 local artists as the Regina North Artists Guild and in 2010 changed to Heartland Artists Guild as a non-profit corporation.
They formed to meet the needs of artists wanting an avenue to encourage and foster their talents and it continues to do so. With a community minded base the artists, both new and experienced, provide wonderful opportunities to demonstrate their skills and talents to each other and to the public.
There is always an atmosphere that promotes and encourages artists to learn and develop their skills with workshops, community events and shows. The Guild welcomes new members to share the experience. For more information visit the AGR Local Guilds page here.
