Exhibitions Opening: Fountain of Dreams and Topographies

Jun 10, 2023, 01:00 PM - Jun 10, 2023, 04:00 PM

Join us on June 10, 2023 to celebrate two solo exhibitions at the RMG with brand new work by Aaron Jones and Anna Binta Diallo. Fountain of Dreams is an installation of audio, video, and photos by Aaron Jones that considers the spatial and multi-sensory qualities of haunting and remembrance. In Topographies, Anna Binta Diallo brings an assortment of image fragments into strata-like installations. Playing with physical and conceptual layers, these exhibitions share an interest in the interplay between permeable borders, whether geographical, geological, or generational.

Refreshments will be provided. Please join us for remarks at 2pm, followed by a tour of Topographies with artist Anna Binta Diallo.

Coming from Toronto? Sign up to ride our bus from OCADU to the RMG. The bus will depart OCADU at 12pm, with anticipated arrival at the RMG between 1 and 1:30pm. The bus will leave Oshawa at 3:45pm and return to OCADU for 5pm.
