Meet Port Moody secondary grad Elizabeth Zvonar on Wednesday night at the Art Gallery at Evergreen, where the Vancouver artist has a solo show up until Jan. 7.

Zvonar will be at the Coquitlam facility (1205 Pinetree Way) on Dec. 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. to talk about her exhibit, The Future Is Coming Everyday — a series that captures “metaphysics, waves, cycles, time, patience, repetition and female emancipation,” according to a press release.

Her deconstructive display, which opened Nov. 18 and uses collage techniques, is influenced by her reading of the latest translation of The Second Sex (1949) by Simone de Beauvoir.

A graduate of Emily Carr University of Art + Design, Zvonar was the city of Vancouver’s artist-in-residence from 2010 to ’15 and, recently, was inducted into the Royal Canadian Academy of the Arts. She is represented by the Daniel Faria Gallery in Toronto.

It is the first show under Evergreen’s new visual arts manager, Katherine Dennis.

• The gallery is open Wednesdays to Saturdays noon to 5 p.m. and Sundays noon to 4 p.m. Admission is free. Call 604-927-6555 for visit artgalleryevergreen.com.
