Caroline Monnet – Proximal 2018
This work evokes the artist’s French and Anishnaabe roots, referencing the standing stone of Britany and the lunar cycles central to Algonquin tradition. In this way, the spheres serves as guideposts and monuments of transatlantic journey.
Monnet sees this Atlantic roue, layered with colonial histories and economic interchanges, as a vexed yet fertile space. The spheres bring a sense of grounding in contrast to the turbulence of the ocean.
