To be adrift means to be unfastened, floating without direction, moving with the seas and winds. We have all found ourselves unmoored: physically, mentally, or emotionally, at some point over the last two years in the wake of the pandemic. How have we navigated these uncharted waters in isolation? How do we find a safe harbour and our community again?

Call for Submissions: Textile Photo Collage
Members of the Hornby Island community are welcome to share stories and photography that speaks in some way to your experience over the last two years. You can share a photo of humans, plants, or animals, a place on the island, or meaningful objects. If you like, you can use the following questions to guide you:
• Over the last two years, what is something that has changed for you?
• What is something you learned or taught yourself during this time?
• What does a post-Covid safe and happy community look like?
Along with photos, individuals can submit a written response to the questions, which will be incorporated into the Adrift exhibition.
