Defining Moments: Discovering Our Canadian Stories
[Issue 6]
From 2010 to 2013, Defining Moments engaged youth across Canada in addressing the question "how do you shape Canada? How does Canada shape you?" Defining Moments: Discovering Our Canadian Stories is an online collection and travelling exhibit of artwork created by youth aged 13 to 30. Each piece expresses the artist's identity and experiences living in Canada. Contest winners were selected and announced on Canada Day 2012 and made up the Travelling Exhibit, which appeared in locations across the country. Operated by TakingITGlobal and supported by Canadian Heritage, Defining Moments took participants on a journey through accounts of Canadian identity. Exhibits featuring the winning art pieces appeared in every province and territory, including Winterlude in February 2013.
Issue 6 of TIG magazine is a compilation of the 26 jury-selected winning artworks created by youth across the country, including artist statements and quotes from the winners about how their Canadian identity influences them as artists.
