Pangée Montreal

Bronson Smillie’s presentation at Liste 2026 charts the intersection of drawing and sculpture, working with material culture that, once ubiquitous, have become obsolete in the pursuit of digital efficiency. Composing works by visual systems of logic and mark-making, Smillie generates a delicate intervention that highlights a shared material past while undermining function-based hierarchies. The result is a playful reverence for an object’s aura and for passing time’s imprint on things as cultural relevance and usefulness diminishes.
