SUMMARY:Objets de fidélités : Barbies\, bots\, bébés
DESCRIPTION:“We invest in objects all that we find impossible to invest in other people.” — Jean Baudrillard \nWhat kinds of objects deserve our care? \nDolls\, robots\, mannequins\, and prosthetic bodies occupy an uncertain space between object and companion. Throughout history these artificial human figures have served as toys\, research tools\, devotional objects\, stand-ins\, and technological experiments. Their design shapes not only how we perceive them\, but also how we relate to them. \nBringing these figures together in unexpected contexts\, this exhibition explores the emotional\, ethical\, and cultural relationships we form with artificial bodies. Why does a doll that moves feel unsettling\, while a motionless robot feels incomplete? Why should neither become too human? These contradictions expose the shifting boundaries between person and object\, empathy and discomfort\, imagination and reality. \nAs artificial companions become increasingly present in everyday life\, the exhibition invites viewers to consider not only how we have learned to care for these figures\, but also what forms that care\, and those relationships\, might take in the future.

SUMMARY:A Little Art Boutique presents Tree Tree Tes’s Art Show “The Starchild Series II”
DESCRIPTION:A Little Art Boutique at 807 Corydon Ave presents Winnipeg artist Tree Tree Tes’s new art series “The Starchild Series Part II” from Aug 12 – September 4. \nArtist Statement: \nMeanwhile\, What I Want to Say Is…\nThe debut launch of The Starchild Series II \nThis exhibition marks the beginning of The Starchild Series II\, a new chapter where each Starchild carries not only a face but a voice. \nAlongside selected paintings\, I’ve written short poems as quiet offerings to the viewer. These characters are no longer simply whimsical companions. They become wishes\, reminders and gentle conversations. \nA Time to Grow holds a sage with a candle upon its head\, symbolizing the healing and guidance we seek. The green peony\, the king of flowers\, speaks of quiet strength\, renewal and the courage to flourish in our own time. \nMeanwhile\, What I Want to Say Is… is an invitation to pause\, read and perhaps discover the words you didn’t know you needed to hear. \nArtist Bio: Treetreetes (Tree Tree) is a Hong Kong-born\, Winnipeg-based multidisciplinary artist known for her whimsical storytelling and emotionally resonant works. Through watercolor\, acrylic\, oil\, ink\, and mixed media\, she creates imaginative worlds that explore connection\, growth\, healing\, and the beauty found in everyday moments.\n\nA graduate of the School of Design at Hong Kong Polytechnic University\, Tree Tree has exhibited internationally and participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions. Her work has also been featured in an international art book. She is a mentor with MAWA (Mentoring Artists for Women’s Art) in 2026\, supporting emerging Canadian artists through mentorship\, and provides one-on-one guidance to artists across various disciplines. \nHer practice is shaped by personal experiences\, cultural transitions\, and a fascination with nature\, memory\, and human relationships. With a playful yet thoughtful approach\, she invites viewers to reconnect with curiosity\, wonder\, and their inner child.

SUMMARY:A Little Art Boutique presents Jacobus van Houdt's Art Show "Flora Fantastica"
DESCRIPTION:A Little Art Boutique at 807 Corydon Ave presents Jacobus van Houdt’s Art Show “Flora Fantastica” August 12 – September 4\, 2026. \nArtist Statement\nMy work is rooted in a lifelong love of fantasy and the imagining of worlds beyond our own. I have always been fascinated by the ways humanity and nature are intertwined\, and I often imagine places where plant life becomes more central to our daily evolution\, architecture\, and way of living. \nIn Flora Fantastica\, flowers\, trees\, and other natural forms become homes\, gathering places\, and entire communities. These whimsical environments invite viewers to consider a world in which nature is not simply a backdrop to human life\, but an active participant in how we live\, connect\, and grow. Through vibrant colour and intricate detail\, I hope to create places that feel joyful\, familiar\, and just beyond the boundaries of reality. \nArtist Biography\nJacobus van Houdt is a Winnipeg-based contemporary artist whose work blends whimsy\, nature\, and storytelling. Working primarily with acrylic paint\, archival ink\, and alcohol ink\, he creates imaginative worlds inspired by the natural environment and the connections that shape our lives. His work has been exhibited internationally\, including in Sweden\, and is held in private collections throughout North America\, Europe\, and Australia. In addition to his artistic practice\, Jacobus is the founder of Heart and Hue\, an initiative that uses art to support charitable organizations and foster meaningful connections between artists and their communities.
