Text reads, Sunbury Shores Arts and Nature Centre presents Shadow Ecology, Heather McCaig and Emily Phillips. September 2-24, 2022. Opening Friday September 2, 5-7pm.

Heather McCaig’s glass draws attention to the disappearing ecosystems of Canada that are quickly becoming shadows on our landscapes due to human disturbance. Her incredibly detailed native flora and fauna from each region brings the country’s ecosystems together in one room, allowing the viewer to recognize that by losing these crucial ecosystems, we are losing ourselves.

Emily Phillips’s art connects people with beloved wild places in the Fundy region. She aims to evoke in her viewers the same attachments she feels to these places along with an appreciation for their intrinsic value and continued conservation.

Join us this Friday for the Opening Reception this Friday, September 2, from 5-7PM
