SUMMARY:City of Guelph 2024 Artist-in-Residence Tracey-Mae Chambers: #HopeAndHealingCanada
DESCRIPTION:City of Guelph’s 2024 Artist-in-Residence\, Tracey-Mae Chambers\, will present an artist talk and single-day exhibition of the community weavings created throughout the residency\, during Culture Days on Sunday\, September 22. Join Tracey-Mae at Shelldale Family Gateway between 1 and 4 p.m.\, with an artist talk at 2 p.m. to learn about her #HopeAndHealingCanada project that has been installed across the country and brought back to Guelph this year. Register for free on Eventbrite. \nThroughout the 15-week residency\, Tracey-Mae Chambers engaged the Guelph community at over ten locations\, in conversations centered in truth and reconciliation through community weaving workshops and pop-up textile installations both indoor and outdoor. Creating public activations and interventions using yarn and community dialogue\, Tracey-Mae approaches her work through the lens of collectively decolonizing place. \nVenue and event presentation are generously supported by the Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition. \nAbout the Artist\nTracey-Mae Chambers is a Toronto-based artist and proud citizen of the Métis Nation of Ontario\, creating site-specific installations. Deeply influenced by her personal history\, Chambers’ installations invite audiences to contemplate identity\, belonging\, decolonization and reconciliation. Since discovering her Métis heritage in adulthood\, Chambers has embarked on a quest for harmony with the natural world\, where she found solace in the vessel as a metaphor for individual journeys\, continually filling and refilling one’s narrative. \nAbout the Artist-in-Residence program:\nThe City of Guelph offers the Artist-in-Residence program to broaden the community’s experience of the arts\, inviting artists to engage with the public and showcase their creative practices while animating public spaces. The program aligns with the vision of Guelph’s Culture Plan\, fostering innovation through creativity\, curiosity and collaborative expression. \nAbout Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition:\nThe Guelph Neighbourhood Support Coalition is a network of neighbourhood groups\, sponsoring agencies and program partners. Each neighbourhood group operates in an autonomous way at the grass roots level to meet the needs of children\, youth and families that have been identified within the neighbourhood. Through the Coalition\, the neighbourhood groups bring together their collective resources to share information\, provide support\, distribute available funding resources and advocate for community issues.
