Finding Myself in the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts II

Oil on canvas
72 x 48 in.
Custom framed
2017

The painting, the artist has replicated and inserted themself into, is Shepherdess at Vallangoujard, 1898 by Marc-Aurèle de Foy Suzor-Coté.

"The series Finding Myself at the MMFA is an exploration of the (lack of) institutional representation for people of colour in the Canadian and Quebecois art pavilion of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. I try to find my place in their space, and decide to insert myself into their paintings."
