Every Heart Can Grow Bigger: Make Room

Odd Gallery, KIAC, Dawson City, Yukon, 2020

 

"The century of people helplessly seeing others, who were close to them, disappear over the horizon".
John Berger.

This work is a response to global migration crises and the moral challenges they pose. As long as we have natural disasters and wars, we will have the displacement of people who are looking for safety and a better life. Where they land, they change local cultures. It is a world in flux with each person transformed at the point of contact and little achieved without community.
L.H.
