Description: "This book is based on the four-city museum exhibition Outside the Palace of Me, featuring the works of internationally renowned Canadian multidisciplinary artist Shary Boyle. This publication is a powerful look at identity and what it means to live in 2021. Boyle's work explores all aspects of self-conceptualization, including race, gender, and social media that has seduced us into performing our personal experiences and sculpting our identities for a disembodied audience. Using art to dive deep into societal strife and to shine a light on injustice, Boyle offers a powerful commentary on the role of the Artist to explore narratives of helplessness, escapism, transformation, and hope."--
Notes: "This book, created and published by the Art Canada Institute, marks the exhibition Outside the Palace of Me, produced for the Gardiner Museum, Toronto, and presented at the The Rooms, Newfoundland, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, the Vancouver Art Gallery, and the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery"--Colophon.
