NBCCD Instructor Showcased at Rewilding Exhibition
Janice Wright-Cheney, a Foundation Visual Arts Instructor at the New Brunswick College of Craft & Design (NBCCD), is among thirteen Canadian artists featured in the Rewilding Exhibition at the Canadian Museum of Nature in Ottawa with her artwork Spectre.
Rewilding focuses on restoring natural environments to their original, self-sustaining states. This process enhances biodiversity, strengthens ecosystems, and fosters thriving, resilient landscapes.
This prestigious exhibition, curated by Helen Gregory of Western University’s McIntosh Gallery, highlights the winners of the inaugural David Suzuki Foundation Rewilding Arts Prize. Selected by a jury of esteemed Canadian artists, the showcased works explore themes of environmentalism and the relationship between humans and the natural world.
The Rewilding Arts Prize recognizes artists who creatively spotlight the importance of rewilding in our lives and communities, inspiring meaningful connections with the natural world.
