Resistance and Resilience: An online exhibition

Curated by:
Rhonda L. Meier

Exhibit website:

Twelve artists from first or second generation migrant/immigrant racialized communities of colour present work exploring  the  racism and systemic oppression they have experienced.   At times poetic, at times harrowing, their work in video, sculpture, installation and textiles seeks to open up dialogue and complexify discussions surrounding migration and narratives of nationalism, benevolence, and fear.

Initially proposed by Diana Rice of the °®¶¹´«Ã½College Centre for Peace, the exhibition was also conceived to include student, or emerging artists, who were selected by a jury following an open call for submissions.   Three of the five selected are °®¶¹´«Ã½students–Dallas  Karonhia’nó:ron Canady Binette, Asia Mason, and Ya-Nan Song.

A collaboration with the °®¶¹´«Ã½Peace Centre, generously supported by °®¶¹´«Ã½College and the Entente Canada-Québec.
