Our Opening Reception is a great way to experience Curtias works in person and meet the artist behind this incredible show.

Curtia Wright’s Amensalism is inspired by the ecological relationship in which one organism is harmed while the other remains unaffected. Wright uses Amensalism to draw a connection in the ways systemic forces, colonialism, gender norms and mental health stigma can diminish individual agency. Through 17 new artworks, Wright invites viewers to reflect on the greater systems that influence our lives and ways of thinking.

The exhibition is supported by Toronto Arts Council with funding from the City of Toronto.

We look forward to welcoming you to the gallery!

This Saturday, meet the artist behind “Amensalism”….

Curtia Wright is a Toronto-based multidisciplinary Fine Artist, Mural Artist, & Arts Educator. She received her BFA in Drawing & Painting from OCAD University in 2015.

Her work fuses elements of fantasy, sci-fi, & surrealism, using vibrant, transportive colours to animate their environments. Using the human figure to showcase narratives centred around her lived experience, Curtia explores mental health, metaphysics, and the ephemerality of dreams & memory through a sci-fi lens.

Beyond her studio practice, she has collaborated on public art projects & commercial and private mural commissions across Canada & internationally!

Come experience her new body of work in person at the Hub Gallery🌟

Following a passionate career in medicine, Susan is now a full-time artist and a juried member of the OSA and FCA.

Next, we have Mark Gleberzon Mark Gleberzon - MJG Gallery .
