hic, the Collective

hic stands for the Hart House Installation Collective which consists of six artists: Carlo Cesta, John Dickson, Gordon Hatt, Catherine Heard, Lisa Neighbour, Lyla Rye and Max Streicher. Together they initiated and organized the exhibition hic to "situate contemporary art within the life of the university community". Eighteen artists has participated in the project, producing installation works situated throughout the building - in the first and second floor and the basement. At the vestibule outside the southeast entrance, John Dickson set up the installation Smoke and Mirrors, creating the illusion of an infinitely long arched tunnel filled with trees.
