The exhibition brings together Canadian and international contemporary artists in an enlightening exploration of what light, in its physical and spiritual dimension, might teach us about adapting new ways of seeing, and the potential that lies in seeing differently, with the heart and mind as well as our eyes, so as to understand and go beyond conventional perceptions and thereby to avoid the risk of stereotypes and misconceptions.

Toronto, Canada

That happened to be my birthday.
But you need to know that the Museum is much younger than me.
