the Mother (load) Member's Exhibition


  • Lake Country Art Gallery 10356 Bottom Wood Lake Road Lake Country, BC, V4V 1T9 Canada (map)

β€œIt is a matter of time and focus, and any artist who is also a mother is in

short supply of these two essential ingredients. Who are the artists making

it to all the evening gallery openings and artist talks? The meeting and

greeting? Who are the artists with studio spaces separate from their homes

and stuffed full of work? Who are the artists with mentors? Someone who

looks like them? Where is the shop talk taking place? The evolving artistic

dialogue is not happening at the family dinner table or in bed before

storytime. Or with the other parents at school drop-off and pick-up. How

can you be in two places at once?”

These pressures are explored in this fantastic show that resonates and strikes a nerve in a powerfully creative way.

(quotation by Bree Apperley - artist and mother)
