Legion of Memory

The MT Space, CCAT (Canadian Center of Arts and Technology) , and Tapestry will remember all those who attended Legion of Memory, sadly the offensive is now over. But do not despair for the good old days as a pre-emptive but measured invasion may be staged in the Spring and Summer of 2007.

More Information about Legion of Memory can be found here.


Our local branch website will continue to be updated with pictures and other memoribillia from the great war(s) here.

Date & Location

Exhibit | March 14 – 22, 2006 | Kitchener City Hall Rotunda

Meet-the-Artist Reception | March 21, 2006 | 6:00 pm Kitchener City Hall Rotunda

(Reception in partnership with CrossCultures Magazine)

Through my work I tried to capture the multicultural expressions that bring life to the urban landscape of the Waterloo Region. These photographs show how the different ethnic and cultural expressions of immigrant families blend in and adapt to their new Canadian environment. In this work, I tried to capture the ephemeral reality of a multicultural kaleidoscope as it seeks to arrange itself in some creative order.

These photographs captured immigrants and Canadians participating in public life, passing through public places, and living their everyday life. Looking for multicultural expressions in the urban landscape led me to frame spontaneous expression, specific detail on a wall, or an architectural mark that reflects the historical and cultural environment around us.

As a photographer and an immigrant, I tried to capture the spirit of the multicultural community, its habits and its ways of life, as portrayed in the wonderful simplicity of everyday rituals.
