My Winnipeg: Maps a Legends exposes private and political histories that have contributed to Winnipeg's identity. Engaging the viewer through her installation House on Fire, Sarah Anne Johnson grapples with her family's hardships and their strained relationship with the medically-altered mind of her maternal grandmother, an effect of CIA-funded brainwashing experiments. Karel Funk's realist, neo-Renaissance portrait of an unknown young urbanite deliberately obscures the subject's face by the hood of a winter jacket, Winnipeg's unof cial eight-month uniform.
