Somebody’s Child

Nan Ferrier’s painting series Somebody’s Child continues at Eptek Art & Culture Centre in Summerside through February.

Ferrier began attending the free breakfast program at Trinity United Church in Summerside and started drawing the people there—those who came for breakfast, family members, and others present. She has said they have “interesting faces” and noted that people are not often the focus of exhibitions. Somebody’s Child captures people in action, doing everyday things, and speaks to our shared humanity.
