I went to the art gallery today and saw the inaugural Inuit exhibit INUA in companion to Qaumujuq, “it is bright, it is lit” in Inuktitut. It is the new Inuit led and curated museum feat the largest collection of Inuit art (they are being bery honest about where they were sourced + many of them actually know the artist?! That rarely happens w Indigenous are and archive!) I also saw Métis/Michif exhibit Kwaata-nihtaawakihk / A Hard Place of Métis artwork and archival material. I also got to watch Amanda Strong/spotted fawn’s stop motion short, “Four Faces of the Moon”, and read 2 Métis produced comics. Kwaata-nihtaawakik was co curated by Cathy Mattes who I met from my previous contemp art programming assistant job who told me to study art under her if OC*AD kept treating me like shit lol 😭💖
today was very nice and I have a lot to look forward to in a couple of months !
