is very proud to also present the following Special Exhibits:
A photo in My Hooked Rug
This exhibition showcases the remarkable creativity and craftsmanship of rug hookers from Bor’de’lo and Grande-Digue groups in New Brunswick. Inspired by a workshop in 2024, these artisans embarked on a journey to infuse their rugs with personal stories and memories by integrating photos directly into their designs.
Using innovative techniques, such as printing photos on metal or printable fabric, they seamlessly incorporated these images into the structure of the rugs. This is a collection of rugs that are visually stunning and deeply meaningful, each telling a unique story and reflecting the individual experiences of the creators.
As you explore the exhibition, take time to read the descriptions of each rug in the catalogue to discover the stories behind the photos and gain insight into the creative process that brought them to life. From cherished family moments to breathtaking landscapes, each rug is a testament to the skill and passion of its maker.
