Permanent Danger: In conversation with Anna Torma

Dates June 16.2021

On June 16, 2021, the Art Gallery of Guelph hosted a virtual conversation with artist Anna Torma and artist and curator Bryce Kanbara for a discussion of the ideas and issues explored in Torma’s work in advance of her solo exhibition Permanent Danger. Intensely layering details that speak to ideas of family and well-being, sexuality and identity, home and place, Torma’s densely embroidered textiles reflect a distinct approach to materials as well as subject matter, with every element selected for its distinct qualities and cultural allusions.
