ANTHEM: Expressions of Canadian Identity — a digital exhibition curated by Museum Studies students Cayleigh Eccles, Jessica Lanziner, and Megan Sue-Chue-Lam, in partnership with the Canadian Language Museum.
This exhibition invites Canadian artists to interrogate the meaning of the anthem’s lyrics and their relation to national and individual identity, as well as reflect on the lands upon which they personally live, work and learn. Audiences are invited to reflect upon the often dissonant nature of Canadian identity as both a product of colonialism and a sense of belonging for many.
