Winsom Winsom's  art work interprets images of the elements, land, animal and human presence in the context of Afrocentric value systems. Spirituality becomes central to the imagery. Winsom continues to bring about the synchronization of her art and Spirituality and believes “true power originates from internal spiritual enlightenment, and that we must use this power to reach our higher selves: creating harmony”. Over time her art work is signed as Winsom or Omiala or A'Bundance. Please visit her website for more information. Winsom has contributed a work to the Embassy Cultural House's inaugural virtual exhibit Hiding in Plain Sight.

OUR STORY
​Artists Jamelie Hassan and Ron Benner and jazz musician Eric Stach founded the Embassy Cultural House (1983-1990) located in the restaurant portion of the Embassy Hotel at 732 Dundas Street in East London. Other former members of the board were: Debrann Eastabrook, Henry Eastabrook, Sharron Forrest, Wyn Geleynse, Janice Gurney, Jean Hay (1929 - 2008), Doug Mitchell, Kim Moodie, Gerard Pas, Peter Rist, Wanda Sawicki, Jean Spence and Jennie White.

In 2020, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Embassy Cultural House was re-envisioned as a virtual artist-run space and website. 

​London, Ontario is on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee, Lenape, Attawandaron and Huron-Wendat peoples, at the forks of Deshkan Ziibi (Antler River), an area subject to the Dish with One Spoon Wampum and other treaties.

Thank you to our supporters
