Myth Making

2012 Exhibition: Backstage

Myth Making brought together three artists from Peru, Canada and the USA whose work was creating a new mythology. Lima, Peru's Maximo Laura's stunning tapestries explore Andean mythology and stories. Peterborough's Faye Jacobs "tree spirit" sculpture combined tree roots with tapestry. Chicago artist, Noel Morical's massive wall hanging made of paint chips gave the sense of constructing a universe or cosmic blanket.
