To feel connected to someone is to feel understood, loved, accepted, affirmed with a sense of belonging. But how do we keep meaningful connections alive when physical connections are lost? My Father’s passing in 2012 was a profound life passage. We shared a close, introspective, artistic kinship; he was my mentor and a very caring parent. Don was a self-taught, accomplished and very cerebral artist. He was also a grandson of George Henderson Hopkins, founder of Hopkins Landing, British Columbia and grew up there with his family and returned later in life to live their in retirement. As I struggle to keep vestiges of my connection with my Father alive, I was drawn to our family origins, as many of us are inspired to do later in life. It all led to this exhibition; a tribute to my relationship with my Father and our Hopkins Landing family heritage.
