Mooniyang

October 9 to November 24, 2019

« Mooniyang » a creation by Caroline Monnet © Martine Doyon

Using geometric shapes inspired by traditional Anishinaabe patterns, the territory is divided, reassembled and fragmented in a dynamic series of motions. The ages-old patterns are related to long-suppressed Indigenous knowledge. They represent unknown lands, invisible boundaries and transitional spaces.
