Join Alberta Craft and Mireille Perron for the reception of her solo Discovery Gallery exhibition, 
Rebus Plates For Our Times
.
A rebus is a type of riddle that combines images and individual letters to represent words or phrases. In the 19th century, French rebuses printed on ceramic plates became popular. These plates often featured riddles on the back and covered a wide range of themes, from moral lessons to social and political commentary.
The inspiration for this series came from a plate given to Mireille Perron by the well known Calgary ceramist Greg Payce. It took her years to decipher the phrase inscribed on the plate, as the answer had been erased. Two years ago, she finally uncovered its meaning: “Les Rebus illustrés sont très à la mode par les temps qui courent” (Illustrated rebuses are very popular in our times). This discovery led her to create a new collection of rebus plates reflecting the issues we face today. Mireille Perron’s exhibition blends the art of 19th-century rebus plates with a powerful message for our time.
