Of course, artist Christopher Hemsworth will be here, officially launching his new collection of Canadian Heritage Minute prints. (click here for more details!) but he'll also have a new set of ADORABLE pumpkin cards!! Each hand painted and stamped by Christopher himself.
We'll also be featuring a collection of photographs in conjunction with PHOTOPOLIS from
artist Jayme-Lynn Gloade titled "the 8th Movement"
"Jayme-Lynn presents a series of portraits of Mi'Kmaq people portraying Mi'kmaq legends. In particular she focuses on moral, ideological, spiritual and survival roles and value within the legends. The 8th Movement refers to the eighth historical moment in Aboriginal history, which began in 2008, and represents the Aboriginal idea of 'the future'. Each portrait is the representation of a form of 'power' as demonstrated in different legends. The world power is this case is referring to the conscious alteration of the world through the actions of every day living things. The 8th Movement is a visual strategy to initiate meaningful dialogue between diverse cultures while focusing on the Mi'kmaq perception of the world "
