Join us on September 1st to celebrate the opening of our newest exhibition میں اپنی ماں کی بیٹی ہوں | I am my mother’s daughter ! Reception will be at the CRAG with delicious food and a cash bar.
=0D=0A=Our new exhibition میں اپنی ماں کی بیٹی ہوں | I am my mother’s daughter is a solo exhibition by artist Farheen HaQ featuring video and sculptural installation. It celebrates the resilience and knowledge systems of HaQ’s mother who arrived in Canada in the 1970s to meet her partner in an arranged marriage, settling in the Niagara region (Ontario), Haudenosaunee territory. The exhibition weaves together intergenerational relationships, connecting the experience of the artist’s mother with HaQ’s experience as a child of that union and subsequently, its impact on her own experience as a mother. The artist’s work of inner housekeeping includes personal journeys through a family’s past as a way of moving forward, and political reconciliations determined by the territories on which she and her family arrived as guests. The artist explores how she carries the past and how she determines its legacy into the future.
=0D=0A=Opening reception is without admission and open to the public.
=0D=0A=See you there!
