Hey there! Thanks for visiting!

This is just a quick note to mention that 50% of all sales will be donated to
Guelph Black Heritage Society & The Guelph Black Community Solidarity Fund.

It's a strange and difficult time to be an independent artist.
Self-promotion in light of recent events regarding systemic racism, police brutality and injustices faced by members of the BIPOC community simply isn't appropriate.

I have believed for a long time that if people are willing to support me as an artist that I should also extend that support to efforts that address these systemic issues that our society is faced with.

As a white person I have benefited from a system that - I now see more clearly than ever - has been designed to benefit me.
In acknowledging this fact requires a change to be made, so going forward I'm going to do my bit as a visual artist to contribute to causes that will fight for meaningful change in my community and society at large.
By supporting me, you are also supporting that change.
I would also like to encourage you to take this time to engage with what's going on in a meaningful way by educating yourself on how to be a better ally & accomplice for the BIPOC community.
Here's a good place for you to start.

In the meantime - take a slow scroll through my gallery.
Artworks can be purchased in the shop, and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Be well,

Monika Hauck
