À propos
Join us to celebrate the opening of "Pawatamihk", a solo exhibition by Regina-based Michif artist Audie Murray. "Pawatamihk" means dream in Michif, and the exhibition features artworks made in the last two years that address the revolutionary potential of dreaming.
While Murray works in beading, quillwork, video, sculpture, painting, and photography, dreaming is a key element in her creative process. In contemporary society making time to dream rather than constantly produce is often frowned upon. Dreaming is dangerous for colonial worldviews as it allows a window of time and space to listen to the earth and to ancestors, to imagine the world differently, and to prepare to enact change. In Pawatamihk Murray shares works that speak to the value of slowing down, taking care, and reflecting, considerations that resonate strongly in a year in which Nanaimo Art Gallery asks What is Progress?
