10:00am - 11:00am
On Saturday, November 23, WAG-Qaumajuq members (Friend Plus, Partner, Associate, Corporate) will be treated to a special tour of the new exhibition, MOTHERGROUND, led by the curator, Dr. Riva Symko!
MOTHERGROUND by Dominique Rey featuring Madeleine and Auguste Coar is an in-depth exploration of motherhood and how everyday gestures between a mother and child can be radical. At the core of this exhibition is an attempt to unravel the myriad transformations during the early developmental stages of motherhood, the relentless balance/imbalance that is at stake, and the oscillation between extreme emotions—from agony to ecstasy.
Take advantage of this members-only tour and gain deeper insights into this exquisite exhibition.
