Mortar and Brick, "Slow Reflections," 2019
Opening Reception: Friday February 1 2019 4:00 - 9:00 PM
Located in historic downtown Lethbridge, Mortar & Brick suggests the core values that drive us. The Gallery hosts permanent representation of some of Western Canada’s most popular mid-career artists, as well as rotating curated exhibitions; our unique blend of programming features ideas and idea makers who most reflect the cultural environment in which we are situated.
The beginning of a new year offers us a point of reference to both past and future versions of self. It may prompt new intentions or give us the space needed to create resolution and greater purpose in our lives; however, the external pressures to continuously improve upon ‘who we are’, erase bad habits, and form short term goals do not always lend well to self-growth.
Like taking two steps forward and one step back, Slow Reflections recognizes the importance of patience, self-awareness, and respect when considering this process. The artworks selected for this exhibition offer us a glimpse into not only the personal, but the places and experiences that connect us to our individuality, and celebrate who we truly are.
