The Mann Art Gallery is pleased to present land home land, an exhibition of work by Gabriela García-Luna created through her May 2026 residency at the John V. Hicks Gallery.
The residency was developed to encourage artistic exploration, community connection, and reflection on the relationship between art and place. Inspired in part by the proximity of the Arts Centre to the North Saskatchewan River, land home land highlights García-Luna’s ongoing exploration of the natural world and its personal significance within her artistic practice.
Through photography, digital work, printmaking, drawing, video, and installation, García-Luna investigates themes of connection, separation, fragility, resilience, presence, and absence. Her work reflects on personal histories and the ways different realities come together, creating moments of reflection and recognition.
Born in Mexico City and based in Treaty Six Territory/Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, García-Luna is a photo-based multimedia artist whose practice continues to expand across multiple mediums. Her work explores relationships between memory, identity, and the landscapes that shape our experiences.
García-Luna has participated in national and international artist residencies and has exhibited in Mexico, Canada, the United Kingdom, and India. Her work has been recognized through grants and awards from organizations including the Saskatchewan Arts Board, Canada Council for the Arts, and FONCA (National Foundation for Culture and Arts Fellowship in Mexico). Her artwork can be found in public and private collections, including the Saskatchewan Arts Board, MacKenzie Art Gallery, Global Affairs Canada, and other national and international collections.
land home land is curated by Jesse Campbell and runs from June 1–23, 2026.
The Mann Art Gallery invites the community to experience the exhibition and reflect on the relationships between land, belonging, and the stories we carry with us.
This project is funded by Northern Lights Community Development Corporation and presented in partnership with the P.A. Council for the Arts, Margo Fournier Arts Centre, and the City of Prince Albert.
Visit the exhibition at the Mann Art Gallery throughout June.
Over the past year, the online gaming market in Canada has become much more competitive, which makes choosing the right platform more complicated than before. Many sites try to attract attention through aggressive marketing, but experienced users usually look deeper and focus on practical things like payment speed, account security, and customer service quality. I think that approach is completely justified because a reliable platform should make the entire process feel simple and transparent from the beginning. Recently, I compared several popular platforms and noticed that Kats Casino offers a more polished and user-friendly experience than many alternatives. What I liked most was the sense of balance throughout the platform, where entertainment and usability seem more important than overwhelming users…
