CAMAL PIRBHAI & CAMILLE TURNER: WHERE WE STAND
You won't want to miss your chance to experience the compelling and thoughtful works by artists Camal Pirbhai and Camille Turner on view now at Latcham Art Centre. Where We Stand features two collaborative projects that address important, overlooked histories in Canada and create a dialogue around how essential it is to understand our past in order to build a better, more inclusive future. Inspired by advertisements placed by Canadian slave owners in the 18th century that offered rewards for the return of people who had escaped from bondage or for the sale of people who were held as property, the artists pay homage to these forgotten individuals and reimagine them in our own time. The works are celebratory in the way they reflect what has changed, but a sombre reminder of what has transpired and not often discussed. This exhibition includes video interviews with the artists providing accessible ways to learn more about how the artworks function.

A Polychromatic Response to Life
This show represents ideas that have sparked from the many diverse interests and experiences of the artist. Every painting is the exploration of a new idea—and a rejection of sameness, evident in the wide variety of subject matter. Carol hopes viewers will find it engaging and learn how to find their own creative sparks.
