SUMMARY:OUR PAINTED HOUSE
DESCRIPTION:Check out Our Painted House at the Gallery! \n\n\n\nThis drop-in activity is inspired by Maud Lewis’ iconic Painted House. Using a variety of materials\, you are invited to create your own artwork shingle to add to the painted house\, an almost-to-scale image of Maud’s home. Inspired by Maud’s keen observation of the world around her\, create something that reflects on these ideas: \n\n\n\n\nWhat do you notice outside your window\, at home\, or in your community?\n\n\n\nWhat are the things that are important to you?\n\n\n\nWhat patterns\, designs\, or images tell a story about your interests?\n\n\n\n\nThis project will run from November 2022 until May 2023 and will bring together hundreds of individual adorned shingles by visitors to the Gallery\, creating a large\, colourful installation-a reimagining of Maud Lewis’ Painted House and our collective communities.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Tyshan Wright\, Traditional Craft Meets Contemporary Art
DESCRIPTION:This event is sold out. \n\n\n\nTyshan Wright is the 2022 Sobey Art Award finalist representing the Atlantic region. He describes his practice as working from his cultural traditions\, those of the Jamaican Maroons. Jamaican Maroons are descendants of Africans who resisted slavery and formed their own independent communities in the mountains of Jamaica in the 1600s. \n\n\n\nBased in Halifax\, Wright considers the Jamaican Maroons exiled to this same city in 1796 and asks; What did they do here? How did they keep ceremony in this new place? Wright will discuss his practice\, the cultural and ceremonial nature of his artwork\, as well as his installation in the 2022 Sobey Art Award exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada. \n\n\n\n\nRegister for Artist Talk\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nRegistration is required for this event. Limited availability. \n\n\n\nThis event is organized by the National Gallery of Canada\, Art Gallery of Nova Scotia and the Sobey Art Foundation.
