April 1 – February 29
Exhibition – Iceberg Stranded in My Bed by Faune Ybarra
Aberdeen Skytrain Station
Presented in partnership with the Capture Festival, City of Richmond Public Art and the Canada Line Public Art Program. Faced with her feelings of displacement and the constant need to adapt to different landscapes, diasporic artist Faune Ybarra aspires to ground herself in the places she chooses to live. Born and raised in Mexico, Ybarra moved to St. John’s, Newfoundland, where she lived for four years. She now lives and works in Vancouver. Hoping to acknowledge her presence in a new–albeit potentially transient–place, Ybarra began creating an ongoing multimedia archive of her journeys to weave her story within the broader tapestry of immigrant narratives. This work is a part of Ybarra’s archive.
