Every Fall, the National Gallery of Canada presents the work of five contemporary artists who have been shortlisted for the Sobey Art Award. This year’s five finalists are: Kablusiak, Michèle Pearson Clarke, Séamus Gallagher, Gabrielle L’Hirondelle Hill and Anahita Norouzi. These artists all work in a variety of media, creating innovative works that often use explorations of the self and identity to examine diverse and universal themes that speak to displacement, resilience and memory.
