Textile installation: They are loved

A brand new textile installation by artist Tracey-Mae Chambers will be making its world debut at the Museum of Health Care this summer.

They are loved-an epidemic of grief is a textile installation exploring disenfranchised grief and addiction, motivated by the loss of Tracey-Mae Chambers’ son, Parker. Each piece of clothing or other textile based material used in this installation has been donated by someone who is surviving the loss of someone due to the consumption of a harmful substance that resulted in death.

They are loved-an epidemic of grief will open to the public on July 1, 2025 and will be available to view until October 3, 2025. An opening event, featuring a talk by Tracey-Mae Chambers, will be held on June 30.

The Museum of Health Care is grateful for the support of Ontario Power Generation Regional Empowerment Grants Program, who sponsored this installation.
