C magazine review

Yuling Chen

April 21st 2026

The exhibitions at Royal Ontario museum, cloudspace, picnics and pastimes, and shokkan, shows a disrespect towards East Asian people and their cultures. It criticizes the Israel Palestine conflicts, Venezuela and wars. It makes statement about people who live in poverty claiming they are sex workers, comfort women and some sort of drug addicts. It has made shapes and colors primary focus through its kimono display and constructed clouds. Etc.

... Read moreIn my visits to museums and exhibitions that tackle complex cultural and political themes, I have noticed how impactful art can be in broadening understanding and generating important conversations. Exhibitions like those at the Royal Ontario Museum use elements such as kimonos and cloud installations not only as aesthetic features but as symbolic representations to reflect on East Asian culture and historical narratives. It is compelling how these exhibitions do not shy away from politically sensitive topics such as the Israel-Palestine conflict, Venezuela’s struggles, and issues around poverty, including the stigmatization of certain groups. Through their displays, they challenge viewers to rethink common perceptions and question the stereotypes often held about marginalized communities, including those unfairly labeled or misunderstood as sex workers or drug addicts. Moreover, the artistic focus on shapes and colors draws attention to how visual language can convey messages of cultural identity or critique. This resonates with my personal experience in engaging with contemporary art where sensory elements invite deeper reflection beyond words. Such exhibitions serve as a reminder that art spaces are vital for dialogue and for addressing the discomfort around topics like war, prejudice, and social inequality. They also teach us about the power of art to speak across cultural divides and encourage empathy for people living under difficult circumstances. Personally, visiting these shows enriched my understanding of how cultural disrespect can manifest and the responsibilities artists and curators bear when telling stories of complex histories. It encourages me to approach cultural exhibitions with a thoughtful and open mind, appreciating both their beauty and their capacity to provoke meaningful discussions.

POV: Your BFF becomes friends with popular girls
Would your friend ditch you for the popular girls? If so, maybe they arent really your friend. I think it’s so sad to see a friend become the second option. Friends come and go. That’s life. But when you see it unfold in this way, it can be upsetting. I’m so glad that Kaitlin decided not to go
