Mirrors offer us a view into ourselves and a glimpse at perspectives other than our own. As a visible minority focused on unpacking the complexities of the body in identity, mirrors can be both beloved and contentious objects for Day; compulsively checked or intensely avoided. It is through the mirror that she asks questions, seeks acceptance, and comes to understand perception.
In Two Ways, Day brings the viewer into this relationship with a series of screen printed works that can, and in some cases must, be viewed through the use of mirrors. The artist invites you to compare and contrast the images as they are before you, or as they are reflected – and to consider which perspective rings more true.

Victoria Day (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Tkaronto/Toronto. She explores the liminal nature of her half-Korean cultural identity through printmaking, collage, ceramics, papermaking, and murals inspired by traditional Korean patterns.
Day graduated from the University of Guelph in 2014. She recently held a solo exhibition at the Open Studio Main Gallery in Toronto and her work can be found in the TD Bank Art Collection. Day’s work has been supported by the Toronto Arts Council, Ontario Arts Council, and Canada Council for the Arts. She looks forward to upcoming solo exhibitions at Martha Street Studio in Winnipeg, and SNAP Gallery in Edmonton, as well as upcoming residencies at the Women’s Studio Workshop in New York and Kala Art Institute in California.
