Finding Balance in a Topsy-Turvy World

April 20, 2017 - April 23, 2017

Finding Balance in a Topsy-Turvy World

Lobby Display

The Gardiner Museum and Radius Child & Youth Services invite you to witness and celebrate fearless work in the form of ceramic sculpture. These works have been created by young artists all of whom have experienced sexual abuse.

In an increasingly topsy-turvy world, finding emotional balance is more important than ever. Using clay and creating within a group can build support and enhance comfort. The cultivation of mindfulness-based art activities allows for an increase of compassion and restores emotional equilibrium and calm.
