The gallery is closed today as we pay our respects to the survivors and those who never made it back home from Residential School. National Truth and Reconciliation Day gives Canadians a chance to learn, heal, and move forward together as we come to terms with this dark and terrifying chapter of our past. The legacy of Residential Schools does not just linger in the past, but informs the present for so many individuals and family’s. Every child matters. 🧑

On September 10th, Jake and I celebrated 5 years working together at the gallery. We have some stories to tell!
Fittingly, the traditional symbol for a five-year milestone is wood β€” representing strength, stability, and deep-rooted growth. A solid foundation, built one year at a time.

Thank you, Jake, for your dedication and steady partnership. It’s truly appreciated. πŸ“· Charlene Vicky

Love Medicine, curated by MΓ©tis art historian Dr. Michelle McGeough, aims to create a space of recognition and community, offering an artistic embrace in response to the historical traumas inflicted by the settler nation-state on 2Spirit/Indigiqueer bodies.

This exhibition is founded on the belief that love, expressed through artistic acts, is a powerful force for healing and affirmation. It features approximately 22 Indigenous 2SLGBTQIA+ artists whose works touch on various time periods and regions, and explore love as healing, community and belonging, affirmation and embrace, and resilience and identity.

Featuring more than 80 works of art by more than 70 artists, Qillaniq marks the largest circumpolar exhibition ever assembled, shattering expectations and redefining global contemporary art.

Qillaniq (an Inuktitut word describing how light from the sun or the moon shimmers brightly when reflecting on water) β€” is co-curated by an all-Indigenous team from the circumpolar world.
The artworks celebrated in this exhibition are multi-vocal, multi-disciplinary and improvisational, inspired by Indigenous values of contributing to community in as many ways as possible. Qillaniq is an expression of radical joy, an exploration of what the artists tell us is possible in our communities, of holding space for the people who change our world – despite not always fitting into the norms of colonizing institutions – a celebration of those that share love as an answer to difficulty. Qillaniq, that shimmering on the water, that bright light honours the circumpolar world’s badass artists that tell us all that our existence is enough.

Ceremonial/Art is thrilled to present Chipewyan (DΓ«nesΕ³Ε‚inë́) artist Jake Kimble’s inaugural solo exhibition in Vancouver Take Two Moons & Call Me In The Morning. Thinking about photography through a Northern lens and how healing the cold can be, Kimble brings forth new works that were developed over the course of their 2 month residency at the Klondike Institute of Art In Culture in Dawson City, Yukon. Acts of self-care, self-repair, & a cheeky disposition towards survivance are all at play in this new body of work.
