Avril Fairbrother MFA exhibit with panorama photos

Ceramic van
 The streets of Regina were quiet last night. While everyone was at the game or watching it in front of their tv, only the food deliver cars were prowling ... and us. We drove over to an amazing art display in a garage. It was a ceramic van, a ceramic bedroom, and a ceramic fence which constituted the graduate thesis work of Avril Fairbrother. The central piece was the van, modeled after a van she has owned half her life, a van she learned to drive in, traveled in, and even lived in. The remainder of the work related to issues of home and homelessness. It was quite realistic.
