Dreamland: An exhibition about home, identity and the art of belonging
August 1
–
September 15
Dreamland, curated by Hibah Mian, poses the question: “Is it possible to exist in two places at one time?”
The project illustrates new ways to understand the passage of one space to another, the move from a home to a house, while learning stories of trauma and transformation. Dreamland looks at BIPOC artists’ works and residents in Mississauga to conceptualize the use of public spaces that propose associations between the immigrant or refugee in a western world.
Featured artists include:
Baljit Singh,
Yazan Salameh,
Karim Machado-Aman,
Krystal Ball, and
Par Nair.
This project is funded through the Museums’ BIPOC Community Curator Program.
