Enough White Lies to Ice a Wedding Cake

Given the opportunity to recreate your life what would you do?

There is something delicious about being given the opportunity to re-invent, something that installation/video artist Linda Duvall investigates in this intriguing exhibition.

Duvall considers the ease with which we can, and do, lie, and the presumption that a viewer can readily distinguish the truth?. Experience the tension and complexity created as the viewer begins to question the relationship between the stories told and between what might be, or might not be, true.

Co-curated by Linda Jansma and Dan Ring. Organized by the Mendel Art Gallery and the Robert McLaughlin Gallery.
