Ange Loft’s wearable sculptures (exhibited in A foreign source of extraordinary power) and movement facilitation is brought together in All You Can Hold, a multi-arts spectacle created to the music of LAL’s Album – Find Safety. Featuring some of Toronto’s top queer and trans artists of colour, including, movement by ILL NANA/DiverseCity Dance company and Victoria Mata, and projection design by Jose Garcia. Join in creating a hallowed space, where we define for ourselves what it means to be holy, sacred, consecrated, sanctified, and blessed. ASL interpretation provided by Gaitrie Persaud.

More about A foreign source of extraordinary power

A new work by Ange Loft, A foreign source of extraordinary power, is the third project in the Art in Use series.

A foreign source of extraordinary power is a collection of wearable sculptures grappling with the legacy of Saint Kateri Tekakwitha, an Algonquin–Mohawk Saint who practiced forms of self-discipline learnt from her Jesuit nun contemporaries.

Museum admission is required for entry to A foreign source of extraordinary power.

Advance registration for this event is sold out. Limited tickets will be available at the door.
Doors open at 7pm. Show at 7:45pm.
