Studio Art Quilt Associates: ‘Colour with a U’ / City Gallery / July 8 – September 2, 2022
About the Exhibition
Colour with a U is a juried exhibition of 35 art quilts. In Canada, we spell colour with a “u”. We care about the “u”, it makes us unique. We care about the “you”, it brings us together. These artists have reflected on the theme of diversity and inclusion to give “colourful” representations of our Canadian cultural identity. Each offers an individual perspective on how we as Canadians see ourselves in our social, historical, and physical landscape.
