Storytelling invites us to sit with and within another’s experiences. Island of Listeners presents stories crafted through the collaboration of palliative care patients, care partners, and healthcare providers at Bruyère who shared their time and words with storyteller Kim Kilpatrick, shaping 21 stories through interchange, connection, and care.
Find great, local gifts for everyone on your list (and maybe something for yourself as well), while supporting Canadian artists and the Ottawa Art Gallery.
In this exhibition we explore the critical and creative practices of Jeff Thomas, Urban-Iroquois photographer, curator, activist, and cultural theorist.
Dialogue between contemporary and historical art can provide us with new ways to consider the past. Here, South-Asian Canadian artist Rachel Kalpana JAMES' immersive contemporary installation highlights a moment of East-West interaction in the early 20th century.
This work delves into the beauty of flowers and their Fibonacci connections, as well as cosmic fascination and intertwining Earth and lunar rhythms.
Through the Ground Glass is a dialogue between the work of historical Ottawa photographer William James Topley and six contemporary artists: Lori Blondeau, Chun Hua Catherine Dong, Anique Jordan, Neeko Paluzzi, Adrian Stimson and Geneviève Thauvette. These artists engage with image manipulation, hauntology, costumes and theatricality to subvert narratives and reclaim power through portraiture.
