 k Chapters</em> is a touring exhibition of paintings by David Garneau\, cu
 rated by Arin Fay from the Nelson Museum Archives &amp\; Gallery. It
  is accompanied by a publication of the same name.</p>\n<p><br
  />In his exhibition <em>Dark Chapters</em>\, David Garneau presents metic
 ulously rendered metaphorical still life paintings of objects set in intri
 guing\, deliberate arrangements. These configurations illustrate the inter
 twined reality of modern and traditional Indigenous life alongside the com
 plicated ramifications of colonization. Garneau titled the exhibition Dark
  Chapters to conjure Justice Murray Sinclair&rsquo\;s description of the r
 esidential school system in the Reports of the Truth and Reconciliation Co
 mmission as &ldquo\;one of the darkest\, most troubling chapters in our na
 tion&rsquo\;s history.&rdquo\; As with traditional still life painting\, t
 he items in Garneau&rsquo\;s work carry deep significance\, associations\,
  and stories. The titles of Garneau&rsquo\;s paintings are also an importa
 nt part of his meaning-making\, which guide viewers toward understanding h
 is intention while prompting thoughtful dialogue around reconciliation.</p
