The days are getting shorted and shorter, and that means we all need to be preparing for imminent festivities. Yes, even now!
Estonian artist Peeter Laurits (at the computer) has arrived as a rotating artist-in-residence at the Cotton Factory, Hamilton's artists' centre for his part of the Estonian-Canadian artist exchange program that was initiated and sponsored by Robert Zeidler. Laurits will be speaking at Tartu College in Toronto amongst many other cities.
In the evening of Wednesday, October 3, 2018, Lepatriinu (Triinu Paomets) from Estonia performed at Tartu College in Toronto.
The exhibit pavilion with light installations is 12 metres wide, 4 metres high, weighs 4 tonnes, and is made up of 244 panels. Each panel tells a short story about Estonia's rich and colourful history as well as present-day Estonia.
