Faces — Wayne Mayer

Textile art is a great passion that Wayne Mayer has been pursuing for decades. “Faces” is the meticulous and colourful work it has brought forth. The exhibition features an assemblage of some fifty faces, at once diverse and similar. As Wayne explains: “Basically, each face has a uniqueness that sets it apart from the next, even though we are all the same.”

Opening Reception: Thursday, October 3, 2024 at 5 p.m.

This series of exhibitions is presented in collaboration with the Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario.
