‘Exchange Piece’ explores collaboration as an act of care through an exchange between 10 early career and senior artists and designers working in pairs to explore how care in the creative process affects the way we relate and position ourselves to what we create. 

The exhibition features the work of Khadija Aziz, Jennifer Chan, Leigh Dotey, Laura Kay Keeling, Kristine Mifsud, Moira Ness, Tiffany Shaw-Collinge, Rhonda Weppler and Trevor Mahovsky, Amy Wong, and Florence Yee and Arezu Salamzadeh as the Rice Water collective, who explore concepts of care and come together in pairs to collaborate on an exchange piece.

This exhibition is curated by DesignTO, co-presented with Harbourfront Centre, and supported by Lemay.

Self Care

Leigh Dotey

Inspired by the strigil, an instrument used for scraping oil and dirt from the body, this collection explores our connection to the body through the ritual of grooming. The gentle wearing of the bronze edges summons the necessity and the luxury of continual self-care practices.
