Scotia Plaza and helloart are thrilled to come together showcasing the work of talented Canadian artists, striving to enrich your sense of community, promote mental well-being, and elevate the aesthetic and cultural atmosphere of your space.
John Eric Laford (1954-2021), was a skilled Ojibway artist from Manitoulin Island, Ontario. Among his many accomplishments, he received a Canada Council award, enabling him to study and exhibit internationally. Although largely self-taught, he also studied at Algonquin College and explored pottery and ancestral art. His works, renowned for their spiritual depth and vibrant depictions of the natural world, have been displayed across Canada, the USA, and Spain. In 1987, he was awarded a grant to study at the Institute for Contemporary Art and Urban Resources in New York City. These featured works are currently held as part of the Algonquin Heritage Collection.
