Description
Everything changes, even when time stands still
Elisabeth Belliveau spent two years in Amiskwaciwaskahikan / Edmonton social distancing in a 680-square foot condo. Fueled by increased espresso consumption, food delivery, and twenty-year-old Cindy Crawford workout videos, Belliveau attends endless online meetings and teaches so many virtual art classes that they all start to blend together. But even in pandemic times, life goes on, and Belliveau soon finds herself navigating much bigger challenges - like pregnancy and tenure.
In CONDOLADY, award-winning artist Elisabeth Belliveau considers the moments that make up our lives - and sometimes change them completely.
