Meryl McMaster, "Harbourage for a Song," 2019
digital c-print, 40” x 60”
A single subject, dressed in ornate costumes or wielding intricate, handmade props, stands alone in a vast, empty landscape. It feels dreamlike, otherworldly, magical. From the shores of Newfoundland to the Saskatchewan prairies and between, Canadian artist Meryl McMaster seeks out these desolate places and poses her lone model for her photography series As Immense as the Sky, which is being shown this fall at Touchstones Nelson Museum.
Opening reception Friday, September 25 from 7-9 pm. Masks are strongly recommended and registration is required. Call 250-352-9813 or email info@touchstonesnelson.ca to register.
