TransMigration is a transformational journey into the realm of the “Artist”. Emotionally poignant performances and striking imagery evoke the magic of Morrisseau’s visual language weaving narratives between reality and the dream world. TransMigration characters dance amidst fantastical landscapes communicating ecstatic spirituality and the pull of dualities of Skyworld and Underworld.
