Practicing mothering, in any capacity, is a lived experience that is always fraught with contradictions. The realities that mark our current generation\u2013for instance, the overwhelming presence of conflicting parenting advice and information shared through social media, and the accompanying record-high levels of anxiety\u2013place mothers in an unprecedented era that is increasingly difficult to navigate. The goal of &#8220;Maternal Collections&#8221; is twofold: to share raw and honest experiences of mothering, and to help build a much needed sense of shared and supportive community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(text adapted from materials provided by the artist)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>WKP Kennedy Gallery<\/strong><br>Capital Centre<br>150 Main Street East<br>North Bay, Ontario P1B 1A8 Canada<br>(705) 474-1944 x231<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hours:<br>Tuesday-Saturday, Noon-4PM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/EstLKigxDve36Gbx9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MAP<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/capitolcentre.org\/all-events\/gallery-events-exhibitions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WEBSITE<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/KennedyGallery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FACEBOOK<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COLLAGE ON VIEW Rebecca Clouatre: Maternal Collections at WKP Kennedy Gallery in North Bay, Ontario, Canada21 April-3 June 2023 &#8220;Maternal Collections&#8221; comprises a range of new work from Rebecca Clouatre\u2019s artistic practice, bringing together a group of collage and mixed&hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/content\/collage-exhibitions\/maternal-collections\/\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":13755,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13754","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-collage-exhibitions","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/rebecca-clouatre-xix-reveries.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2QTD7-3zQ","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":2902,"url":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/content\/collage-exhibitions\/homeland-judd-bird-holman\/","url_meta":{"origin":13754,"position":0},"title":"Homeland at William Holman Gallery","author":"Christopher Byrne","date":"5 May 2014","format":"gallery","excerpt":"26 March-10 May 2014 \"Homeland\": Tom Judd and Rebecca Bird \"Homeland\" at William Holman Gallery, New York, is a joint exhibition by Tom Judd (oil paintings and collage) and Rebecca Bird (watercolours and paintings) that \"[reevaluates] the American landscape and its relationship to historical narrative...[challenging] the traditional understanding of landscape\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Exhibitions&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Exhibitions","link":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/category\/content\/collage-exhibitions\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/The-Imagined-Curse-by-Tom-Judd.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/The-Imagined-Curse-by-Tom-Judd.jpg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/The-Imagined-Curse-by-Tom-Judd.jpg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/The-Imagined-Curse-by-Tom-Judd.jpg?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x"},"classes":[]},{"id":11698,"url":"https:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/content\/collage-exhibitions\/shaping-maternal-lineage\/","url_meta":{"origin":13754,"position":1},"title":"Shaping Maternal Lineage","author":"Christopher Byrne","date":"13 October 2021","format":"gallery","excerpt":"painted paper collage by Lesley Eaton.
