Opening Reception: Jennifer Long and Nat Cann

Sunbury Shores 139 Water Street, St Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada

Jennifer Long: Mended Leaves Canadian artist Jennifer Long has established an arts practice that addresses the complex role of women’s experiences, with its disproportionate responsibility for unpaid care work, how care is given and its impact to those involved. Mended Leaves is a photographic series that references the impact of the Covid pandemic on caring for others, and the subsequent process of repair and renewal. Through large-scale images of hybrid botanicals which the artist created, she considers quiet moments and rituals of everyday life. Based in Toronto, Jennifer has participated in several residencies and contributed to scholarly presentations and panels, and received numerous grants; her work is in private and public collections in Canada and abroad.   Nat Cann: Commorant Commorant is New Brunswick artist Natt Cann's collection of housing centric artworks detailing a longing for hearth and home through printmaking methods, repetition, and the contrast between idealized narratives and factual outlooks.

Your subject matter for both days will be in-studio still-lifes and huge nature photos; you will be working on small- and large-scale drawings. You will take home two finished drawings and multiple sketches while exploring methodologies, materials, and techniques. Sketching outdoors will be an option, weather dependent.
