Practice as Ritual/ Ritual as Practice

Wednesday May 28, 2025 at 6:30 pm Pacific Time

Almost Live episode #183

Experience a descriptive tour of Practice as Ritual/ Ritual as Practice. This exhibition presents the work of ten Black Canadian women artists who have been making art since the 1980s. The range of artworks and artistic approaches included draws attention to the role of knowledge gained via extra-rational modes, such as dreams and visions, in creating connections to lost knowledge, kin, and a deep desire for Black people’s liberation. The title of the exhibition refers to an overarching theme that emerges in the artworks—one of tending to Black histories, presents, and futures—and to the labour involved in such a practice.

Host Amy Amantea will joined by Carleton University Art Gallery educator-in-residence Jade Sullivan, who will present descriptive highlights from this recent exhibition.
