5:00 PM to 7:00 PM

Join us for the opening of Interrelations: a third perspective by Abdi Osman.

The solo exhibition project by Somali-Canadian artist Abdi Osman, curated by Ellyn Walker, includes contributions from local and inter-national artists and cultural workers.

Interrelations explores questions of place and place-making through a focus on water. Water brings with it complex histories of global Indigeneity and diaspora, enslavement and indentureship, (im)migration and freedom-seeking.

For this project, Osman responds to this complex site and its many histories in a new multi-media work made in situ, as well as through a series of local and community-based collaborations with artists, writers and activists.

Snacks and a cash bar will be available.

The exhibition runs from June 9-August 19 in the Main Gallery.

Entry to the opening reception is by donation. Donations support ongoing public programming at The CRAG.
