opening reception on Friday, January 26, 2018 from 6 – 9 p.m.
Walter Phillips Gallery at Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity is pleased to present Like ships in the night, a solo exhibition by Montreal-based, Algonquin artist Caroline Monnet.
Guest curated by Peta Rake, Like ships in the night features new video works and installations by Monnet, supported by the 2017 Walter Phillips Gallery Indigenous Commission Award. Bringing into play sculpture and video, Monnet creates an abstracted apparatus that aims to demonstrate dichotomies in social, cultural, and political identities, resulting in a critique of the colonial, industrial, and economic interchange between Canada and Europe.
