Opening Reception:  November 29th,  2025 from 6–9PM
Emma Eichenberg, Philip Leonard Ocampo, and Martha Steele
Curated by Eli Nolet


horizon(s) as: brings together artists Emma Eichenberg, Philip Leonard Ocampo, and Martha Steele, whose works explore how time is sedimented, measured, and remade. Moving through anthropocene afterlives and imagined horizons, the show seeks to trouble linear notions of time, investigating how queer temporalities can open possibilities for resistance, survival, and futures not-yet-here. 


Emma Eichenberg (she/her) is an artist residing in the occupied territories of the Erie,Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee, and Mississaugas, known as Hamilton ON, primarily working in painting and printmaking. Her practice conceptually engages with the deterioration and changes in her vision due to an eye condition. Eichenbergs’ shifting perceptions of colours inform material exploration through creating her own oil paints as a method of regaining visual control. Alongside painting, Emma’s print work contrasts her conceptual focuses and exists as an outlet for exploratory silliness and cynicism. Additionally, Eichenberg’s printing practice uses text to engage with queer zine’s and publication practices. 

Philip Leonard Ocampo (b.1995) is an artist and arts facilitator based in Tkaronto, Canada. Ocampo’s multidisciplinary practice involves painting, sculpture, writing and curatorial projects. Exploring worldbuilding, radical hope and speculative futures, Ocampo’s work embodies a curious cross between magic wonder and the nostalgic imaginary. Following the tangents, histories and canons of popular culture, Ocampo is interested in how unearthing cultural touchstones of past / current times may therefore serve as catalysts for broader conversations about lived experiences; personal, collective, diasporic, etc.

Martha Steele (b.2002) is an interdisciplinary artist, researcher, and organic farmer based between TKaronto (Toronto) and Hamilton, Ontario. Graduating from Queen's University's Bachelor of Fine Arts and Humanities (Honours) Program last spring, where she worked primarily in sculpture and new media, her practice explores the intersections of art, ecology, and queer identity. Rooted in land-based learning, Steele’s work fuses studio methodologies with ecological stewardship.

Eli Nolet (they/them) is a queer trans settler-Indigenous artist and arts worker from the occupied territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee, and Mississaugas (otherwise known as hamilton, ontario). Their work explores how technology, DIY publishing, and affective materiality can function as vessels for queer potentiality. Across their practice, Nolet is interested in investigating the many layered histories of queer culture and desire, and questioning the binaries of visibility, legibility, and normativity.
