The Corrid'Art gallery will hold the opening of the artist EagleSpirit on Monday, March 21, 2022. You are invited to come and meet the artist and discover the exhibition: Connections. EagleSpirit is an artist who uses the discipline of acrylic mixed media on canvas. .
Exposition Connexions: Much like trees' ability to share water and nutrients, as well as communicate stress signals across vast distances to create change using mycorrhizal networks, our human connection is consciously expanding across our networks. The critical question is, what is it that we are expressing at this time, and how does it challenge or support important traditions which have ensured communities could thrive generation after generation.
The dynamic thread woven through the collection is the wisdom of Nature to help us reconnect and remember the importance of community and connection as we care for each other and our world. The use of texture and animism themes in acrylics invites the viewer into the magical world that EagleSpirit has been connecting with over the last 30 years as a Contemporary Shaman and Soul Seer. Additionally, this collection is intended to inspire viewers' exploration of their responsibility to their ancestors, as well as duty of care to those that will come after them.
One of the featured pieces will be a triptych of ancient trees revealing a powerful message of family roots. Another possible piece could be this current work in progress about the voices of the children being heard now. While they were tragically lost to the residential school system across Canada, the 'discovery' of those children is bringing the social inequities of a post-colonial Canada into common consciousness which will hopefully lead to a wave of change and reconciliation amongst nations.
