July 5, 2011 July exhibition: Souvenir of Home by Laura Fedynyszyn
Freedom CC is proud to present:
Souvenir of Home
July 8th – Aug 1st
It’s obvious that Freedom CC loves Canada. We love Canadians, Canadian-made goods, we really are here first and foremost to cheer for Canada. It’s only natural that one week after Canada Day, we choose to showcase a fantastic Canadian printmaker and painter who has just developed a whole series dedicated to Canadian wildlife.
In this series Souvenir of Home, Laura – a vegetarian – created life-sized lino prints of mounted animals on decorative papers and old maps to conjure up romantic images of an unknown and untamed Canadian wilderness. By juxtaposing the gruesome images of dead animals onto richly toned papers these works attempt to capture my feelings of both revulsion and obsession with taxidermy.
Come join us at the opening reception and meet Laura!
