Tuesday Textures – Dundee Contemporary Arts
…Exhibition by Sukaina Kubba
Sukaina Kubba is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is strongly rooted in material and cultural research, storytelling, and drawing connections. The artist works with industrial and packaging materials, and explores travelling objects, and textile. All this gives her pieces a very textural feel.

Installing the Black and White Show at WAAC
…probably one of my favourite shows
On Wednesday I spent four hours helping with the installation for the Black and White Show at Women’s Art. I love camaraderie when working with this talented group of women. It’s a beautiful show and I hope those of you who live close by will come downtown to check it out.

A Look Back on 2023
It seems that I have been very inconsistent with my blog in the last month. For that I apologize to my regular followers. I hope to do better in 2024. Here is a quick review of my highlights in 2023.
January to March 2023

Thursday Trios – November 2, 2023
…trios from a pub and two different art galleries from the East Coast
Saturday Sculptures From Fredericton, NB
….in the historic district of Fredericton
There are only 60 000 people in Fredericton but it is the capital of New Brunswick and it had a very vibrant arts community. Our daughter recommended that we visit the Beaverbrook Art Gallery and we weren’t disappointed. On the outside of the gallery and across the street there were numerous sculptures.
Day 10 – Finding Relief and Exploring the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia
…thanks to Kevin for finding the pain medication that I needed for my sciatica
Sunday morning Kevin walked to the closest Shopper’s Drug Mart and with help from the Pharmacist found the Naproxen that I needed. While he was gone I researched what exercises I could do to ease my pain. I found some great YouTube videos and between the pills and the exercises I started to feel much better.
Later in the day I decided that I could handle the short walk to the art gallery. The Art Gallery of Nova Scotia is the largest art museum in Atlantic Canada and currently houses over 18 000 works of art.
The work of Maud Lewis and her iconic house that she lived in for 30 years are on permanent display here. The house is small but Maud painted every inch of wall space and every piece of furniture and every accessory with her famous folk art style.
Other Exhibits include GENERATIONS: THE SOBEY FAMILY AND CANADIAN ART and
DEANNE FITZPATRICK: THE VERY MENTION OF HOME
Here are a few of the paintings we particularly enjoyed.
We didn’t take in all the exhibits. The collection is housed in two buildings and taking in three of the shows was all I could handle.
