Artist of the Month Gallery

Here are the contributing artists, receiving honorable mention in the May, 2020 Artist of the Month competition. The jury of five saw painting, sculpture, photography, a video poem, a decorative poem, an aerial circus act, a dance with mirrors, a First Nation rapper/ spoken word artist, and an original script. Prompting such diversity was the theme, “of the moment”. What stands out in this collection, is how COVID-19 has changes us in distinct ways. For starters, face mask are now a part of our everyday aesthetic, and on a more subtle level, this time of quarantine has clearly caused us to both examine and elevate the mundane. With all that has been stripped away, still we find beauty and still we make art.
