I’m in this World, Doing
6:00 pm - Thu, Mar 19th, 2026at Vernon Public Art Gallery
I’m in This World, Doing is a body of work that explores the hidden systems of labour that quietly sustain our daily lives. Through mixed-media works and installations, Vivian Smith examines how unpaid care work, domestic labour, and affective labour remain economically invisible despite their essential role in supporting society.

In doing so, Smith challenges viewers to reconsider how we assign worth, productivity, and compensation in contemporary life. Read more
