Monday, 6 January 2025 - Explore this series of linocuts and musical arrangements that offer a contemporary reimagining of traditional folk songs, highlighting timeless and universal aspects of the human experience. Using a technique known as crosscutting, artist Rob Niezen intertwines diverse stories and experiences around immigration, labor and leisure, politics and war, romance and death. By linking these age-old topics with our shared modern reality, the exhibition seeks to connect past and present. Folk songs, with their power to transcend borders, make global issues accessible, as they are created and sung by real people telling real human stories. - 225 Confederation Dr, Scarborough, ON M1G 1B2, Canada -
