Intergenerational Gathering

About

In this conversation, Matilda Aslizadeh, Natasha McHardy and Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda will host Margaret Dragu, LaTiesha Fazakas, Karen Knights, Elizabeth Mckenzie, Elizabeth Vander Zaag and Jin-Me Yoon to discuss the impacts of motherhood on their artistic and curatorial practices and consider the shifting historical moments shaping possibilities for artist-mothers in Canadian visual art institutions, art schools, and within the culture at large.  Marlene Yuen will visually respond to the conversation.

We will also be tracing the continuing history of individual and collective organizing that have and continue to create opportunities and support for artist mothers, along with the role that curators and archives play in generating and preserving these histories. 

Our discussion will explore projects and artworks that specifically address the subject and experience of maternity, understood through an inclusive lens. We invite you to explore the work of our guest speakers and find out more about their wide-ranging practices. Marlene Yuen will visually respond to the conversation.
