National Billboard Exchange
Catherine Blackburn "Narhî Wasagabiich," June 3, 2019 to May 24, 2020
Work by three artists will be featured on billboards as part of a national partnership between three artist-run centres.
The billboard exchange, a project by AKA and Paved, both in Saskatoon, and Hamilton Artists Inc., in Ontario, will see Toronto artist Meghan Price's work displayed in Saskatoon until Aug. 30. And UBC graduate Janet Wang's will show her project next July in Saskatoon.
Meanwhile, Saskatchewan artist Catherine Blackburn's work is on view until next May in Hamilton.
Her work, Narhî Wasagabiich, celebrates traditional Indigenous garment-making and adorning, practices that express women's care for their families and communities. Narhî wasagabiich, which means "strong spirits" in the Stoney Nakoda Îvithka language, is part of her series, New Age Warriors.
Meghan Price "New Balance," July 6 - August 30, 2019
Price's New Balance series features pattern and waste plastics in an aggregate of image, material and structure to link human and geologic time, consumer culture and ecology.
