Reception: Prairie Star Deck

Join Alberta Craft and AJA Louden for the opening reception of his solo exhibition Prairie Star Deck.

Edmonton artist AJA Louden shifts his focus from painting to textiles to explore ideas grounded in Afrofuturism that consider the cyclical nature of power, inspired by science fiction and historical paintings. Louden was recently artist in residence at Fern’s School of Craft where he turned his attention to creating large scale tapestries rich with his signature imagery. In his new work, Louden examines the roles of craft in Black communities and the history of craft in rural Alberta in particular.

Prairie Star Deck runs from May 25 — July 20, 2024

FREE visitor & customer parking at the back of the building. Our Edmonton location is not wheelchair accessible.
