Age of Union Fall/Winter Exhibitions

Focused on Nature — Hussain Aga Khan

Through Prince Hussain Aga Khan’s passion for wildlife photography, the exhibition showcases the beauty and splendour of our oceans to raise awareness of the urgency and necessity to protect our natural heritage and resources. Founded in 2014 by Hussain Aga Khan, Focused on Nature supports global conservation, advocacy and research efforts.

Looking to the Future — Katherine Takpannie

Curator: Adrian Stimson

The exhibition looks to the future by recognizing the value of Indigenous knowledge systems as a path to an ecologically balanced future. Inuktitut and Inuit stories of the land teach us about our relationship with it and how it should be treated. Katherine Takpannie seeks to expose her Inuit worldview and tell stories of her people and the land through beautiful landscapes of the North, cultural stories, emotional connections, portraits, and experiences.

Là où se pose la lumière — Mélanie O’Bomsawin

In collaboration with MAPP_MTL

Videographer and new media artist Mélanie O’Bomsawin examines questions of identity, tradition, memory, and knowledge transmission through human relationships. The narrative sovereignty of Indigenous communities is at the forefront of O’Bomsawin’s creative philosophy. She constantly searches for original ways to tell stories and transform how we see the world around us
