Leonard Suryajaya x Jacquelyn Hébert Free Wallpaper Tote Bag Workshop, August 6, 2022, Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art
As part of programming associated with our most recent solo exhibition by Leonard Suryajaya, False Idol X North Kin, we will be hosting a one day free tote bag sewing workshop in our galleries on Saturday, August 6th from 10 am – 1 pm. Facilitated by Jacquelyn Hébert, participants will sew tote bags using the wallpaper material featured in Suryajaya’s exhibition onto fabric backings with leather straps.
Participants are asked to have some beginner sewing knowledge and to bring a basic sewing kit if they have one. Participants should note that they may not complete their tote in the allotted time for the workshop, meaning they may have to finish it at home. All materials for the workshop will be provided.
Jacquelyn Hébert created a selection of handmade tote bags and pouches featured in the exhibition, using an inverse image of the collage that Suryajaya printed on fabric. Each bag was diligently crafted, creating a limited edition, locally made product that celebrates Winnipeg.
Suryajaya built upon the importance of relationships in his extensive body of work by offering free studio portrait sessions to members of the public when he visited Winnipeg for the first time in February 2022. The result of these portrait sessions has been amalgamated into an interwoven collage that becomes part of his characteristic visually rich installation in False Idol X North Kin. The installation models itself after airport newsstands and gift shops for travellers on their way to or leaving home. The sculptural elements of the exhibition extend the immersive set designs of his photographs to make that even more vivid. Suryajaya sees these gift stands as an invitation to audiences to ‘find a sense of familiarity in the photographs of the ‘other, the ‘foreigners.’
If you are interested, please sign up by emailing bronwyn@plugin.org to reserve your seat. Seats are limited please reserve by August 3rd at 6 PM.
Exhibition artist collaboration with Leonard Suryajaya for his show "False Idol x North Kin",

The Third Tongue: Virtual Screening 2022 / La troisième langue: Tournée virtuelle 2022 /
This program brings together eight short films that, in a striking, playful or sensitive way, address the issue of language or identities, particularly Francophone identities living in linguistic minority situations. These videos are a limited sample, but they nevertheless bear witness to an elusive hybrid history and give us a glimpse of the possible third tongue that can exist. La troisième langue / The Third Tongue is a project born at Le Labo, a francophone art media center in Toronto that has been supporting and presenting the work of francophone artists from Ontario and elsewhere since 2006.
The participating artist are Marie Dauverné, Nadine Valcin, Maria Legault, Jacquelyn Hébert, Daniel Cockburn, Lise Beaudry, Jean-Marc Larivière and Louise Bourque.
Ce programme réunit huit court-métrages qui, de façon percutante, ludique ou sensible abordent la question du langage ou des identités, en particulier les identités francophones vivant en situation linguistique minoritaire. Ces vidéos sont un échantillon limité mais qui, néanmoins, témoigne d’une histoire hybride insaisissable et nous donnent un aperçu des possibles troisièmes langues qui peuvent exister. La troisième langue / The Third Tongue est un projet né au Labo, centre d'arts médiatiques francophone de Toronto qui soutient et diffuse depuis 2006 le travail des artistes francophones de l'Ontario et d'ailleurs.
Les réalisateurs·trices participant·e·s sont Marie Dauverné, Nadine Valcin, Maria Legault, Jacquelyn Hébert Daniel Cockburn, Lise Beaudry, Jean-Marc Larivière et Louise Bourque.

"French Canadian Habitants Playing at Cards after Cornelius Krieghoff (1848)", selected as an NBW "Illuminate the Night Project".
La cathédrale Saint-Boniface, Nuit Blanche Winnipeg October 1, 2016
"French Canadian Habitants Playing at Cards, after Cornelius Krieghoff (1848)" is a large scale tableau vivant HD video projection that recreates a work by 19th century painter Cornelius Krieghoff. This piece re-imagines Krieghoff’s lithograph, "French Canadian Habitants Playing at Cards" that depicts a family playing cards around a table. Krieghoff’s piece, which is in the permanent collection at the National Gallery of Canada, fascinates me because it is a representation of early French Canadian life that mixes elements of documentary, allegory and humour. It also echoes the voyageur/settler/Métis iconography that I grew up learning about as part of my Franco-Manitoban heritage.

This artwork is one of 12 recipients of the 2016 Illuminate the Night award. I would like to thank the Winnipeg Arts Council and Nuit Blanche Winnipeg for their financial support of my project.
