Kathryn Mussallem, "Ship’s Company: The Canadian Navy at Work & Play," 2020
Ship’s Company: The Canadian Navy at Work & Play portrays the lives of the men and women of the Canadian Navy, celebrating the diverse humanity of Canadian naval forces. Kathryn Mussallem's photos capture action-packed drills, sailors focused on their work, light-hearted antics at sea and on land, emotional homecomings and the everyday in-between moments. This exhibition commemorates the lives of sailors who work hard, play hard and always return home.
Kathryn Mussallem has spent the last eight years photographing the navies of the world. The photos in Ship’s Company are the product of weeks aboard Canadian naval vessels capturing the training exercises and everyday life.
