Nawemaa / To be related

My solo exhibition, Nawemaa / to be related, is the result of reflection upon the truth in connections.  I have contemplated how imbalance - physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally - does not act in isolation. The by-products of imbalance are felt throughout our relational chain. Somewhere along the way, the well-being of our relatives - flora, fauna, land, water, air and each other - has been forgotten. My beadwork, mixed-media pieces, and paintings address the forced disconnection of First People from the land.

The exhibition is the conclusion of my one year term as Artist in Residence at the Women’s Art Association of Canada. 

Nawemaa / To be related is supported by the Ontario Arts Council. 

Opening receptions are supported by Steam Whistle Brewing.
