FOREWORD

> Silver Bullet: a device that acts as a magical solution
> 
> especially : one that instantly solves a long-standing problem
> 
>  
> 
> The concept of a silver bullet embodies speed and precision, an absolute,
> instantly effective tool with no ability for error. Its magical powers are
> compacted into a one inch case travelling in one specific direction.
> Infamously, this tool doesn’t exist; so we must look elsewhere for a
> miraculous remedy. Creative practices mimic a journey in search for a magical
> solution that remains elusive. However, as we are not simply trying to
> complete an equation, there isn’t necessarily a correct or defined answer to
> what we search for. The ability to compact the complexities of life into
> creative thinking and making has the potential to soothe what concerns us,
> though few would describe the effects as instantaneous or absolute.
> 
>  
> 
> The 36 artists featured in Silver Bullets, the University of Victoria’s 2024
> BFA Undergraduate Exhibition, all explore a means to solve something within
> them or their environment. Themes present in the exhibition include locating
> and quantifying oneself through explorations of sexual, cultural, and racial
> identity, as well as relationships to the body. Several artists in the
> exhibition are in dialogue with memory, grief, trauma, and generational
> shifts; their approaches vary from representation to abstraction. Others focus
> their efforts on issues outside the self. These artists investigate
> consumerism, propaganda, political ideologies, and the deterioration of
> natural and urban environments. In the safety of our studios, magical
> explorations of art present the possibility to cure these complex, intangible
> issues.

their works in four smaller galleries within the UVic Visual Arts Building.
