Dennis Lin invites you to an Open Studio at his Toronto workspace, showcasing a range of projects that collectively reflect his cohesive artistic practice.
Born from personal loss and a devastating house fire, Lin’s recent work seeks to preserve fragments of a past that feels increasingly fragile. Grappling with alienation and the urgency of cultural preservation, Lin has collected and nurtured materials rich in personal and cultural nostalgia.
This body of work balances meticulous conservation techniques with the emotional weight of hoarding—gathering, saving, and tending to what might otherwise be lost. Through his creative process and a deep exploration of his heritage, Lin addresses questions of belonging as a Taiwanese-Canadian, merging his journey back to Taiwan with the often painful legacy of his history.
The work on view spans completed pieces, works in progress, and prototypes, offering a unique glimpse into Lin’s practice.
Dennis Lin’s studio is located on Milky Way, an alleyway just south of Queen Street and west of Dufferin. For detailed directions, please contact [email protected].
