Donald Harrington Monetโ€™s practice focuses on landscape, photo-collage and found object paintings on wood. This exhibition is a collection of quintessential summer moments, a meditation on the sky and land in the Killaloe area, east of Ottawa.


These cabins, cottages, camps – or whatever name is given where you escape to – offer some of the most restful intervals on earth.


“My daughter and her pal Julia are working on our annual puzzle at the cottage. I love the fractured way that these images work just like a puzzle – small movements and pieces of time are captured in the broken whole.”
