Pearls
31 objects \ Cape Breton Marble \ 2021
This series of carvings was the culmination of a year-long research project into the Nova Scotian oyster industry and their surrounding culture. Inspired in part by Michelangelo’s notion of “Life existing from within the stone, waiting to be freed” these mollusks in the real world can often appeal indistinguishable from rocks. However there is potential within each of them to contain a pearl.


Preserves
9 objects \ Indiana Limestone , Water \ 2020
Harrison presents a series of carved Indiana limestone jars Each is carved to scale replications of various jam, mason, and pickle jars. The artist offers, “Limestone is generally composed of organisms dating back thousands of years. As such, they are the preserves of a time that long predates humanity. I want to shape these stones into objects that reflect production and care. Mason jars have become a major part of DIY and environmental food culture but are also widely connected to mass production. They have become objects that highlight settler histories all while highlighting our destructive habits of containing, sterilizing, and preserving.

Best Before
4L \ Chinese Marble \ 2022
This to-scale carving of a 4 liter plastic jug is inscribed with the date “09JUL 2033” representing the artist’s 35th birthday which playfully asks the question: can a work of art ever go bad? This work was heavily inspired by the conceptual carvings of Thierry Delva who taught the artist carving during his time at NSCAD University.

Introduction

Noah Harrison
Noah Harrison is a settler Canadian artist, curator, and theater maker. His artistic work often takes the form of replications of locally significant or everyday items using traditional sculptural practices and materials. His work plays with notions of mimicry, homage, and uncanny through which his work might open up dialogues around object histories, material association, and spatial activation. Harrison attended NSCAD University where they specialized in Sculpture and Art History. His work has shown in both online and in private shows in Halifax, Nova Scotia and his home community of Go Home Bay, Ontario Canada.
