MVTM Show: Colour with a U (Quilts)
Sun, 01 May 2022 - Sat, 02 Jul (each Tue Wed Thu Fri)
Time: 1:00PM - 4:00pm
Apr 30 - Jul 2. Colour with a U is a juried exhibition of 35 art quilts created by Cdn SAQA members. In Canada, we spell colour with a “u”. We care about the “u”, it makes us unique. We care about the “you”, it brings us together. 44 artists have reflected on the theme of diversity & inclusion to give “colourful” representations of our Cdn cultural identity. Each offers an individual perspective on how we as Cdns see ourselves in our social, historical, & physical landscape.

The 22 concrete columns of the Norah Rosamond Hughes Gallery (part of the MVTM) made an impression and has integrally informed the work he has created for this gallery installation. He sees forests as mysterious, as they invite us into their depths to navigate mazes of trees, assorted foliage, and meandering – often disappearing – paths.
