Waiting - Chief Leonard George

Editorial: Meghan Doyle - Gallery Coordinator

The Seymour Art Gallery is honored to be showing the photographic exhibition, "waiting" by Amona RA. This exhibition is in collaboration with and featuring images of, Leonard George and is curated by Vjeko Sager. The opening reception on January 19th proved to be a moving, spiritual experience with opening remarks by Sandra Semchuk. Visitors gathered around Semchuk and George to hear stories and memories of George and his experience with Amona RA during their two year collaboration. The walls of the gallery are sporadically, yet methodically covered in photographs of Leonard George, showcasing his personal life history and experiences. The deep, vibrant, yet simultaneously antique-like colours of the photographs help in achieving the historic, story-telling aspect while the medium and setting create a contemporary contrast. The exhibition is on at the Seymour Art Gallery from January 19 to February 7, 2010.
