Hope & Healing Canada
Temporary Exhibit
Reflect on a journey of self-discovery and cultural reclamation woven through a transformative installation by artist Tracey-Mae Chambers, mapping questions of identity while sparking dialogue on displacement, decolonization, and reconciliation. The Hope & Healing Canada exhibit will be on display from July 13 until October 7.
#hopeandhealingcanada is an invitation to venture along pathways of understanding between Indigenous and settler communities. The knit and crochet-work installation is part of a series of site-specific works spanning over 100 institutions, including historic residential school sites, museums, and galleries.
