SUMMARY:Dimensional Interlude Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Exhibit runs until February 24\, 2026 \nDimensional Interlude is an exhibition that tells stories about aspects of life in Ghana\, West Africa with paintings depicting figures in dreamlike and abstract realms. Specifically\, Jasmin-Nicole explores the imagery of metaphysical and cultural expressions related to her Ghanaian heritage. Central to this project are themes of temporal fluidity and layered existence\, where subjects include mythical creatures\, people\, deities\, and natural elements. These figures traverse liminal spaces and states of being\, moving between boundaries such as life and death\, and the divine and mortal. The exhibition invites visitors to consider how mythological narratives from West Africa inform both individual and cultural perspectives. \nThe exhibition is supported by the Region of Waterloo and Waterloo Region Community Foundation Arts Grants Fund. \nLearn More
