Held. Together.

The details

Before you go

Held. Together. is a group exhibition featuring Glenna Cardinal, seth cardinal dodginghorse, Dwayne Martineau, and Amanda McCavour. Plants provide the curatorial point of departure for Held. Together. From this starting point, the exhibition brings together artists whose practices engage differently with questions of relationship, place, and belonging. Attending to the ecological intelligence of grassland species, the exhibition considers reciprocity and care as forces that sustain human and more-than-human life. Held. Together. honours the enduring relationships Indigenous Peoples have maintained with these grasslands and waters since time immemorial, while inviting those of us who have settled here to consider how we are situated within these living ecosystems and what responsibilities arise from that relationship. Glenna Cardinal (Saddle Lake Cree Nation member/Tsuut’ina Nation) seth cardinal dodginghorse (Tsuut’ina, Amskapi Pikanii, and Saddle Lake Cree) Dwayne Martineau (Frog Lake First Nation, descended from a complex frontier mix of early French, Scottish and Irish settlers, Plains Cree, Métis, and Iroquois) Amanda McCavour (Toronto-based settler artist) Opening reception: September 17, 5 PM to 8 PM.
