The Warren G. Flowers Art Gallery is proud to offer it’s first ever summer artist residency to alumna Sylvia Trotter Ewens (Fine Arts, 2014). Sylvia will utilize the time and space to advance paintings and work on projections in completion of her MFA (Painting) at Concordia University.
She writes, ‘This is a body of work pulling from writings I’ve made on my time caregiving and experiencing loss after my mother’s passing. In these writings I used the garden as an allegory for these experiences as I tackled the memories of this time through writing and painting as a means to congeal its memory.
Vernissage: Thursday, July 18th, 2024 at 5:00pm
