Beneath the multicultural mosaic: representing (im)migration displacement, and home in contemporary Canadian art
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ce mémoire cherche à examiner des pratiques en art contemporain canadien qui ont pour but de questionner le concept du multiculturalisme en temps que « solution » allégée à la diversité culturale, raciale et ethnique dont est composée l’état-nation canadienne. En étudiant surtout les œuvres des artistes canadiens Jin-me Yoon, Kinga Araya et Ken Lum, j’explore la mythologie qui soutient les politiques pluralistes libérales au Canada. Cette dissertation problématize également la notion du nationalisme comme processus d’exclusion qui privilégie une norme anglo-canadienne de race blanche, compliquant davantage l’(im)migration. J’examine ainsi l’expérience psychologique de la non-appartenance, exprimée visuellement à l’instar de la pratique artis! tique. Finalement, en adressant le multiculturalisme et l’(im)migration de cette approche, je reconnaît la nécessité de penser de façons plus globales. Ma proposition est donc de repenser les notions du « chez-soi » et de la nation en mettant de l’emphase sur les thèmes de la mobilité et l’hybridité et non pas sur des définitions statiques et politiquement exclusivistes. fr

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
