About
Join us for a curatorial tour of the West Vancouver Art Museum’s exhibition, Stepping Into the Circle: Aaron Nelson-Moody/Tawx’sin Yexwulla, led by curator, Alison Powell.
Aaron Nelson-Moody’s 30 year-long career encompasses carving, graphic design, and metalwork. As both an artist and educator, community has been fundamental to his artistic approach. This exhibition highlights his activism and advocacy work, as well as the collaborative nature of his working style. While artists of all cultures invite onlookers to ponder the existence of life on Earth, Nelson-Moody’s work is often conceived with a strong intention to create opportunities for profound connection and shared learning. In doing so, Nelson-Moody’s artistic approach actively seeks to create tangible positive change. Using art in the broadest sense of the word—art as cultural encounter; art as protest; art as process; art as teacher—Nelson-Moody invites others in reflection and conversation.
