Annette Peterson
Through a series of ‘en plein air’ paintings, Annette Peterson reinterprets her dad’s memories of life at Parkerville Children’s Home in the 1950s. Annette began researching and recording his story during an artist residency at Midland Junction Arts Centre. This was followed by a residency at Parkerville Children’s Home, where she created site-responsive works while re-listening to her dad’s history. Her dad’s story emerges through the paintings, his emotive response intersecting with her own.
