‘Serious Play’ is a textiles exhibition exploring the radical potential of play. “All four artists embrace a spirit of play that is neither trivial nor naïve; the kind of play that comes from relaxing into yourself, knowing your tools intimately, and trusting your hands to lead the way. These are works that seem to move, speak, laugh, and whisper. In their presence, we’re invited to imagine: are these objects simply handmade, or have they been brought to life?“ -Katrina Craig, In an excerpt from her curatorial essay

Curator: Katrina Craig
Artists: Charlotte Sigurdson, Candace Neumann, Maureen Winnicki Lyons, and Miriam Delos Santos

This exhibition is possible from the support of Canada Council for the Arts, Manitoba Arts Council and Winnipeg Arts Council
