At the centre of the exhibition is a case study that assesses the although it has many words that relate to the land and water. Within this intersections between the basketry of Sewiṉchelwet (Sophie Frank) (1872– worldview, people are intimately bound to non-human entities, such as plants, 1939), a woman from the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), and rocks, animals or places, locating subjectivity well beyond humans. In contrast, the late landscape paintings of Emily Carr (1871–1945). The two women were the modern Euro-Canadian distinction between nature and culture provided close contemporaries and friends for 33 years, a relationship also shaped by the foundation, in the early 20th century, for the development of a national the profound inequalities of their time. The comparison of these two distinct, art and identity in Canada. Paintings of vast empty landscapes premised yet interconnected, perspectives both prefigures and extends the critique of an idea of wilderness that effectively erased Indigenous presence from the the separation of nature and culture seen elsewhere in the exhibition, urging us representation of nature at the same time that these communities were being to think anew about the meaning of self and its ties to the non-human world. -

Of mixed settler/Inuvialuit heritage, Ingniq often creates work that reflects both aspects of her cultural identity as well as broader social issues related to Indigenous people today. Often working with reclaimed or rescued materials in her art- making, Ingniq takes an intuitive and mindful approach to art. In part, this is a reactionary, conscious choice regarding the amount of rampant waste in this capitalist/consumerist society, as well as a symbolic gesture adding to the reclamation of identity. The need to create work like this is to focus on evolving activism that seeks to generate dialogue and awareness about the current and historical aspects influencing Indigenous people, as well as other groups of marginalized individuals and problems to generate opportunities for more inclusive and supportive societies. -
Fall Exhibitions & Programs Brochure
ESKER FOUNDATION Fall 2019 Esker Foundation 3/32 WELCOME WE WELCOME YOU This fall we present the work of Hudson-based artist Jeffrey Gibson and Toronto-based artist Nep Sidhu. Both articulate complex histories and the contemporary struggle to uphold, dismiss, or renegotiate these narratives through work that is itself dense, culturally specific, and technically magnificent. Both artists favour collaboration as a way to expand practice, open conversation, and create community. Presenting their work together for the first time, Esker endeavours to create space for cross-cultural communication to flourish, and for difficult conversations to happen. As an institution we acknowledge it can be far more important to reflect on how we listen rather than reacting to what we hear. While working on these two exhibitions over the last year it has become increasingly clear that although both artists have a fierce commitment to material exploration, what resonates with me now is an underlying theme of inheritance. I borrow from the exhibition text of Jeffrey Gibson: heT Anthropophagic Effect at the New Museum this past spring: “Inheritance, of course, refers to what is handed down, usually through family, tradition, or even by chance. But it also points to other modes by which people come to own: the disposses- sion or erasure of others, for instance. Yet, whether by generosity or violence, inheritance leaves a trace; individual and collective bodies are marked by, and in turn mark, the objects and ideas they only 1 Jeffrey Gibson: The Jeffrey Gibson, 2019. temporarily possess.”1 Anthropophagic Effect.
