Tour of Megan Rooney's "HUSH SKY MURMUR HOLE" with Artistic Director November Paynter

For the artist’s first major solo exhibition in Canada, Megan Rooney will transform a floor of the museum by enveloping it in a large-scale mural, making use of all original walls. This temporary, site-specific environment will become home to characters and scenarios composed from ubiquitous household materials, found objects, stuffed fabrics and paint. In this tour, MOCA Toronto's Artistic Director, November Paynter, walks us through Rooney's immersive exhibition. About the Artist Megan Rooney​ is a Canadian artist based in London, UK. An enigmatic storyteller, her work expands across painting, performance, written and spoken word, sculpture and installation. Summoning a recurring cast of characters that expand and contract across ephemeral incarnations, Rooney engages with materiality, the human subject, and their involvement in the present moment, exploring the chaos of politics and the latent violence of our society, whether in the home, in the female identity, or in the body. Rooney completed her MFA in Fine Arts at Goldsmiths College in London in 2011, after finishing her BA at the University of Toronto and growing up between South Africa, Brazil and Canada. Rooney’s work has been widely​ exhibited across Europe, most recently at Kunsthalle Düsseldorf (2019), 15​ Lyon Biennial, Lyon, France (2019), Museum of Modern Art, Warsaw Poland (2019) and The Serpentine Galleries, London (2019). This is the artist’s first institutional solo exhibition in Canada. Learn more: https://moca.ca/megan-rooney-exhibiti...
