The TRUTH
Originally created in 2016 and reborn out of 2020, The TRUTH is a mobile and travelling art installation that stands against injustice and erasure, and advocates for self-reflection to honour truths found from within. The monumental three-dimensional graffiti-style sculpture is a statement that pays homage and respect to the fact that we are living on Indigenous lands taken over by Colonial Treaties; Treaties which did not honour the commitments made to Indigenous people nor respect them. The TRUTH is also a statement that Black lives matter in all areas of Canadian society given the generations of anti-Black agendas dating from the 1800s to present day.
The TRUTH stands in solidarity for all those who suffer in silence.
Mounted on a 55-foot flatbed truck, this travelling installation visits various communities throughout the GTA. It presents an opportunity for individuals to reflect on their own truth along with the injustices on our planet. The TRUTH is a physical and social movement. Programming may include but not be limited to sharing your truths, smudging, performances, movement, talks and reflections.
