EXPRESSIONS OF IDENTITY:
THE ART OF HAIR, HEADWEAR AND TATTOOS
Mackin House February 1 - September 1, 2025
Coquitlam Heritage explores the personal space of hairstyles, headwear for religious and leisure use, as well as, the art of tattooing in this exhibition. We look at what these outward expressions say about a person, their heritage, culture, and identity. Through a carefully curated selection of artifacts, artworks, multimedia displays, and personal stories, we explore how personal expressions of identity bond us to community and family and meditate on how it can be a subject of hate and prejudice.
