Penticton Art Gallery exhibition explores resilience, displacement and healing
The Penticton Art Gallery in British Columbia will present "Light Through Scars," a group exhibition guest-curated by Emily Carr University faculty member Parvin Peivandi, from June 20 to September 19, 2026. The show features four internationally recognized artists—Oksana Zbrutska, Ghinwa Yassine, Solange Adum Abdala, and Peivandi herself—whose works in painting, photography, film, performance, and ceramic sculpture explore themes of displacement, resilience, and healing, drawing on their Iranian, Palestinian, Lebanese, and Ukrainian heritage.
