Benoit's exhibition includes a series of large-format silver prints of urban wilderness.  He uses a screen of trees as a device through which to peer and catch glimpses of the almost Gothic-like architecture of the city.  He documents pockets of uncultivated vegetation often found on the margins and in the gaps of urban spaces.

This exhibition, assembled from Oakville Galleries' permanent collection, brings together the work of ten contemporary artists who grapple with the imperfect shape of remembrance. Exploring the manner in which time, emotion and popular culture influence the formation and transformation of memories, these artists wrestle with the inevitable fallibility of the mind's eye, opening up questions about how and why we struggle to remember in the face of our certainty to forget.
