Description

This book brings together nine personal explorations and reflections on the author/artists praxis. The essays pertain to the project Yours to Discover (2019-2020), named after the former slogan for tourism Ontario. The writings in this collection focus on grappling with the identity of being an immigrant settler in so-called Canada, fitting into the myth of multiculturalism, and using techniques such as humour, re-performance and family archive to make work palatable for the wider art world. The pieces range in format from research-based, narrative, manifesto, to personal emails.
