SUMMARY:Citizen of the World
DESCRIPTION:About the exhibition \n“Citizen of the World is an exhibition of 6 x 6 inch linocut portraits portraying 300 individual members of our human collective (society) in an extended present tense. It is a portrait of humanity but the individual portraits reveal diversity within the collective. As our identities are bound up with our ideas of difference and uniqueness\, these prints challenge the viewer’s biases. Even though a photograph is often considered to be “more true” than a picture in another medium\, all mediums contribute their own visual quality to the interpretation of a subject. Some viewers have said the portraits capture more than physical features and the subjects themselves had a say in how they were portrayed as they chose or approved of the photograph used to make the linocuts. \n\n  \n\nThe interpretive nature of the viewer’s relationship to each subject adds to the discussion of what these portraits mean together and individually. We see the work through the lens of our personal\nexperiences\, ideas and culture. For me\, the portraits bring forth memories and emotions attached to each of the subjects. Each is someone I know or have spent time with\, even if only for a single\nconversation. It is my interaction with each individual that I think about while cutting the plate. To be thought about by others is a kind of blessing. I hope the accumulative acts of making and view-\ning contributes to the energy of goodwill in the world.” \nAbout the artist \nSara Norquay – Born in Edmonton\, raised in Toronto\, and employed as a free-lance Opera Equity Stage Manager during her twenties while living in Alberta\, Sara attended the Alberta College of Art in the mid-70s.

SUMMARY:Basic Social Unit Hierarchies
DESCRIPTION:About the exhibition \nBasic Social Unit Hierarchies focuses on matriarchal and patriarchal elements within a basic social unit – a family. I study the distinction between these two models\, based on my and my partner’s genealogical histories. I investigate the generational (three generations) and ethnographic (Slavic and Acadian) differences and transformations regarding gender-imposed roles within studied families. I hope that the process\, along with the installation culminating my research will\, to some extent\, elucidate my position and identity as a woman in my own family.  \nThe work consists of two pillars. The first one depicts the dynamics between matriarchal and patriarchal elements within my family. The second one is a graphic representation of these dynamics in my partner’s family. The inspiration for this project was my curiosity to find out how our (my and my partner’s) different histories and experiences have impacted our understanding of the partnership in a domestic context. I want to be aware of any behavioral tendencies we both might have inherited into our home life. I hope for this piece to also inspire my audience to revisit the homes where they come from and to analyze how the domestic models that they have experienced influence their current relationships.  \nInspired by the 18th century Toile de Jouy\, my pieces are printed on canvas in monochromatic blues and reds. The motifs of traditional Toile de Jouy depicted idyllic scenes of every-day life. My drawings of family life might seem to be pleasant at first\, but after a closer look\, they also show loneliness\, neglect\, boredom\, and anxiety.  \nAbout the artist \nKasia Koralewska is a textile-based artist and art educator currently living in Calgary\, Canada. She received her education at the Alberta College of Art & Design in Calgary\, Canada and Academy of Fine Arts in Lodz\, Poland (Master of Fine Arts 2009). She presently teaches in the Fibre program at the Alberta University of the Arts.  \nHer research focuses on various techniques and processes that transform the surface of the cloth. Her artistic practice involves creating large-scale silkscreen printed\, dyed\, and painted textiles\, wearable objects\, drawings\, and installations.  \nHer work has been exhibited in Poland\, Germany\, Czech Republic\, and Canada.
