🇨🇦 Vancouver Art Gallery Summer Show - Finding Comfort in Monsters

Are monsters ugly? Not really. They just don't fit our conventional standards of "beauty" - much like our complex emotions: anxiety, anger, sensitivity. This exhibition teaches us to embrace our imperfections rather than hide them. 🏛️ Exhibition Info (June 6, 2025) Photography lovers alert!
