The discovery in adulthood of her Ojibwa-Métis heritage was a revelation that set her on a path of discovery. Her work is in the powerful tradition of the vessel as metaphor for individuals; we ﬁll and re-ﬁll ourselves throughout life to create our own story. #hopeandhealingcanada was Tracey-Mae Chamber's reaction to COVID-19 and her hope for healing by reconnecting with other people and our environments. The work illustrated the temporary nature of the pandemic, struggles and achievements and our very existence.

Simon Hughes: Works, 2001-2020 (March 5 to October 12, 2020)

Simon Hughes explored the symbolic Canadian landscape in his first solo public exhibition. Both familiar and strange, his interior scenes of artist studios, whimsical architectural structures, rural-and-cityscapes, iceberg and mountain views tend to borrow something from reality but in the end represent a window into the imaginative and the mysterious.

Simon Hughes' Mountain series (April 12, 2020 to October 12, 2020)

Hughes’ work centered on the mountain where perfectly drawn geometric shapes of triangles and rectangles are mixed with book and magazine cut-outs of places, structures and monuments from history and around the world. The mountain acts as a backdrop against which Hughes represents complex narratives that speak to current day issues of environmental degradation, humanity's cultural footprint, and the proliferation of imagery in the age of information.

This selection of works from PAMA's collection brings together a lesser known vein of the artist's oeuvre and provides PAMA with an opportunity to research and present new ideas on this body of work.

Karan Kaur: The Style of Life (March 30 to June 9, 2019, Art Gallery)

Fashion, as an art form, has traditionally been under-represented within the art gallery/museum world. Exhibitions by leading museums featuring the work of Yves Saint Laurent, Jean Paul Gaultier and Iris van Herpen, to name a few, have shifted ideas about fashion and its relationship to art. Karan Kaur notes, "Fashion isn't just about looking pretty, it's about the freedom to express and the right to own body. I want to show Sikh women they can mix religion with fashion and show them it's okay to be stylish and fashionable while still being religious." Questioning Sikh traditions in relation to dress and lifestyle are at the core of this exhibition and exploring ways in which new ideas about fashion and living, as part of the Sikh community, are changing.

Lost Heritage: The Sikh Legacy in Pakistan (April 7 to July 2, 2018, Art Gallery)

The partition of British India in 1947 into two states - India and Pakistan - led to the forced migration of millions of people across the two countries. The Sikhs, settled in regions now designated as Pakistan, were compelled to leave their ancestral homes and their homeland. A vast number of historic sites - sacred and secular - were abandoned. This unique exhibition of images by Amardeep Singh examines that lost legacy. The images trace a journey across a land that saw the birth of Sikhism; and which was its heartland for four centuries. This exhibition was sponsored by the Sikh Foundation of Canada.
