Inside The Vault, we revisit  In The Wild 2019. 

Animals and Mother Nature continue to be awe-inspiring and looking at them and considering them brings us closer to nature; they remind us that, as humans we want to care about the natural world and value things beyond what we have manufactured.

IN THE WILD, an art show that visually explores the impressive wildlife that we share this world with showcases wildlife and their natural habitat while inviting audiences to see the majestic beauty of them on display.  We present this profound exhibit curated by Regan Hayward, with work from artists: Carole Finn, Christine Boylan, Claudia Iorio, Diya Gill, Gisele Boileau, Jesse Strong, Kelly McNeil, Kyle Langlois, Larissa Monique Hauck, Linda Chen, Lynne Schumacher, Monica Burnside, Nathan Cole, Pauline De Four, Peter Cheung, Rachel Raven, Tara Cress, Tiina Salo-Devries, and Todd Jamieson.
