Pieces of Me: A Story of Self
An exhibition catalogue is now available in the Blurb Books store. It includes the names of all the artists who were juried into the show and one of their works. To purchase a copy, click here.
Two copies of the exhibition catalogue will be sent to the National Library of Canada.
By showcasing a range of voices and narratives, the exhibition celebrates diversity’s richness while highlighting the common threads that connect us all. Whether exploring themes of culture, gender, race, or spirituality, each artwork contributes to a larger conversation about the complexities of self-discovery and acceptance.
Each piece in the exhibition serves as a fragment of the artist’s inner self, expressing their unique experiences, beliefs, and struggles. From introspective self-portraits to abstract representations of personal journeys, “Pieces of Me” invites viewers to reflect on their identities and consider humanity’s multifaceted nature.
“Pieces of Me” is not only a visual feast for the senses but also a profound exploration of what it means to exist as individuals in a world where identity is constantly evolving. It challenges viewers to look beyond surface appearances and engage with the deeper truths that unite us as human beings. Through art, we can uncover the many pieces of ourselves and embrace the beauty of our shared humanity.
Adrien Smart juried this exhibition, which curators Angela Menzies and Diana Farrell mounted.
