SUMMARY:Laura Magnusson\, In discussion with Meaghan Ross
DESCRIPTION:Thursday March 2\, 6:00-7:30 pm \nUniversity of Waterloo Art Gallery\, East Campus Hall 1239 \nPresented by UWAG and UW Fine Arts in conjunction with the UW Sexual Violence Prevention Response Office \nPlease join us for a discussion between visiting artist Laura Magnusson and Meaghan Ross\, Sexual Violence Response Coordinator at the Sexual Violence Prevention Response Office\, University of Waterloo. They will discuss themes relating to trauma and resilience in relation to the artist’s current exhibition I was Wearing Golden Clamshell Earrings on display at the University of Waterloo Art Gallery through March 4. \nIn addition to the discussion there will be a participatory activity inspired by the artist’s drawing installation 74 Minutes. \nRanging from video and sculpture\, to drawing and archival materials\, the artworks in the exhibition collectively express a form of “embodied testimony” based on the artist’s research and her lived experience as a sexual assault survivor. Drawing parallels between her own experience of gender-based violence with the violence routinely inflicted upon the ecology of the ocean floor\, Magnusson’s work invites empathy and contemplation of difficult\, often suppressed topics. \nPlease be advised that this exhibition includes themes of sexual violence and trauma\, which some viewers may find distressing. It may also be the case that some viewers may not notice any impact until after engaging with the exhibit. A list of available resources and supports will be available at the front desk of the gallery\, and we encourage you to consider accessing these as needed. \n  The artist acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts. \nLaura Magnusson (she/her) is a Canadian interdisciplinary artist and filmmaker based in Montreal\, Quebec (Tiohtià:ke/). Magnusson’s current research-creation explores and elucidates felt experiences of trauma through installation\, sculpture\, drawing\, performance\, and video. She is a trained scuba diver who has filmed underwater in Iceland and Mexico\, using the medium water as a site for healing and reconnecting to the body. Magnusson holds an MFA in Interdisciplinary Art from the University of Michigan (2019)\, and is currently pursuing a PhD in Interdisciplinary Humanities at Concordia University\, funded by a Doctoral Scholarship from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. \nMeaghan Ross (she/her) is the Sexual Violence Response Coordinator at the Sexual Violence Prevention Response Office\, University of Waterloo; a role through which she supports those impacted by sexual violence to access resources\, and to make decisions for themselves about available options. Meaghan also provides campus-wide education on best practices for receiving disclosures\, unpacking gendered violence\, and creating a consent culture. Working on a post-secondary campus provides Meaghan with a unique opportunity to be a part of\, and motivated by\, ongoing transformative\, collective learning.

SUMMARY:UW Fine Arts MFA Thesis One: Christine De Vuono | Sarah Martin
DESCRIPTION:University of Waterloo Art Gallery\nApril 13-29\nOpening Reception: Thursday April 13\, 5-8 pm \nChristine De Vuono\n\nCare Packages\nCare Packages is a series of textile installations that focus on elements of caregiving: caring for the sick and elderly; caring for those growing into new identities or life situations; and caring for each other in times of distress or loneliness. Sourcing materials from local thrift stores\, I repurpose scrubs worn by caregivers\, tablecloths and lace decorations\, bedsheets\, and pillowcases\, to symbolize our universal need for care\, safety\, and intimacy. As cultural signifiers these second-hand textiles are meant to evoke the feminine\, since the act of caregiving has been traditionally performed by women. Through my artwork I celebrate women of the past and the present\, inviting all\, regardless of gender\, to embrace the labours that lead to a healthy and resilient society. \nChristine De Vuono is a multimedia artist working with drawing\, sculpture\, collage\, installation\, and photography. The materials of each project are chosen specifically to engage viewers in new ways to examine societal norms and values. Her work utilises antiquated practices and mindful labour\, emphasising the disparity between past traditions and present efficiencies. Often focusing on the transitions we face in life\, her work celebrates the needs of the psyche for beloved care and lived beauty. \nSarah Martin\nSomething to soften the blow\nSomething to soften the blow is an installation incorporating textile\, photography\, and video to challenge the horror genre and the concept of the Final Girl. The research leading to this body of work critically explores tropes and traditions of slasher films\, specifically looking at the first victim\, to consider notions of consumption and disposability\, and how this relates to narratives concerning gender\, sexism\, and race. \nSarah Martin works in a photo-based practice to investigate pop culture and media through a critical feminist lens. Themes of her current work consider the vernacular of the horror genre through manipulating archives of film footage and performing death in staged photographs. Alongside her studio work is an active interest in curatorial practices\, most recently curating work at the Homer Watson House and Gallery\, Marilyn I. Walker Gallery\, and Rodman Hall Art Centre. \nADMIT EVERYONE\nUniversity of Waterloo Art Gallery\nEast Campus Hall\, Room 1239\n519.888.4567 ext. 33575\nWebsite\nFacebook\nInstagram \nCONTACT\nIvan Jurakic\, Director/Curator\n519.888.4567 ext. 46741\nijurakic@uwaterloo.ca \nHOURS\nWednesday to Saturday 12-5 pm\nOr by appointment \nMOBILITY\nGround floor entry\nAutomated doors available at Fine Arts entrance\nWide pathways\nAccessible washrooms on ground level \nDRIVING\n263 Phillip Street\, Waterloo\nEast Campus Hall (ECH) is located adjacent to Engineering 6 (E6)\nCampus map \nPARKING\nVisitor Parking is available in Lot B beside Engineering 6 (E6) for a flat rate of $5\nCampus map \nMAILING\nUniversity of Waterloo Art Gallery\n200 University Avenue West\nWaterloo\, ON\, Canada N2L 3G1

SUMMARY:SILENCE PRESENTS: NINA PLATIŠA – ZA KLAVIR
DESCRIPTION:Doors 3:45pm \nStart 4pm \n$15/PWYC \nZa Klavir: For The Piano is a collection of 26 original compositions that blend minimal\, contemporary\, classical roots with elements of Balkan folk. \nThe collection merges traditional and contemporary elements. The six winter days spent recording the album crystallized for Nina the guiding force of its maturation: to weave together a sense of belonging from the disparate sources of inspiration and influence from which she draws. \nIt is in music she comes closest to finding a sense of belonging – especially when seated at her piano bench. \nThis project benefits from the generous support of Canada Council for the Arts and the Ontario Arts Council. \nWebsite: ninaplatisa.com\nInstagram: @nina.platisa\nBandcamp: ninaplatisa.bandcamp.com

SUMMARY:Feminist Spring Sip & Shop Market at Royal City Brewing Co.
DESCRIPTION:Vendor Applications close on April 22\, 2023.\n\nVendor Application: https://forms.gle/fFQukPzjBMA35tbJ7\nVolunteer Form: https://forms.gle/wUmwmFqHNRJPTKKDA\n\nAlternative application formats are available\, please email feministcreatives@gmail.com to inquire.\n\nWhen and Where? \nDate: Sunday\, May 21\nTime: 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM\nLocation: Royal City Brewing Company\nAddress: 199 Victoria Rd S\, Guelph ON\nEntrance Fee: PWYC (suggested $3)\n\nPlease wear a mask to protect our community!\n\nWhat is the Feminist Market?\nThe Feminist Market aims to help chip away at dismantling the patriarchy by creating accessible spaces that support marginalized creatives\, makers\, community organizations\, charities and feminist allies.\nWe aim to create a hub of intersectional feminism\, community\, and activism!\n\nAccessibility Info\nThere is a large curb in front of the venue. There is a ramp and accessible parking spot near the U-Haul rental facility. You are also able to enter through the rear entrance of the brewery on York Road\, there will be an accessible spot marked with a pylon.\nWe aim to create a navigable space within the market for those who use mobility aids.\n\nWe will also have earplugs available at the event for those who are sensitive to sound or have sensory processing issues. \n\nIf you have a question or suggestion regarding accessibility please email us at feministcreatives@gmail.com as we are always looking for ways to improve.\n\n Volunteers\nIf you are interested in volunteering at the market\, please fill out this form: https://forms.gle/wUmwmFqHNRJPTKKDA\n\nAbout the Market & Organizer\nThe idea for an inclusive and diverse market was born out of Siyobin’s passion for putting her politics into practice and led to the actualization of an event that she had dreamed of for years.\nAs a queer\, disabled maker of colour who had frequented many vendor markets\, she had noticed a distinct lack of diversity and focus on support of the artisans at these events. This was very disappointing to her\, so she decided to run the first Feminist Holiday Market in 2017 and create a community centered space. In 2019\, Siyobin Blanco was awarded the Queerator of Arts & Culture Award\, from the Guelph Pride Committee\, for her feminist markets and live performance shows.\n\nPlease email feministcreatives@gmail.com for media inquiries.\n\nFollow the Feminist Events by Siyobin to stay connected for upcoming markets & shows\nwww.facebook.com/feministevents\nwww.instagram.com/feministevents

SUMMARY:"dreamscapes" by Kira Alexanian at Wyndham’s 3rd Floor Gallery
DESCRIPTION:dreamscapes in Wyndham’s 3rd Floor Gallery in Guelph (125 Wyndham Street North\, Guelph ON)\n\nThe show will be on from September 5th to 30th and the opening reception is Thursday\, September 7th from 6-8pm. Light refreshments will be served.\n\nAbout the Show:\nIt is no surprise that the human experience is too often cruel. Just when your footing is found and you begin to take root\, an unexpected shift sends you flailing and face down in the bristly undergrowth.  Dreams are a welcome escape. The boundless and vibrant scenes of the mind’s eye are reminders of the importance of make-believe. In dreamscapes\, I make tangible the glimmering illustrations of my own inner fantasies. These works are formulated without physical reference matter. Instead\, I tap into my brain’s archive of idealistic environments\, with movements of the paintbrush gently urging me far into their otherworldly delights. Fine details and animated lines further reflect the swirling possibilities of a daydream – a place free of the strain of waking life.
