This year the Kelowna Art Gallery is pleased to be working with independent curator Cathy Mattes, who is based in Sprucewoods, Manitoba. She is a Michif curator, writer, and art history professor at Brandon University, in Brandon, Manitoba. Mattes has elected to work with Amy Malbeuf, who is a Métis visual artist from Rich Lake, Alberta.
Mattes writes: “The exhibition will contain mixed-media works that evoke contemplation about the value of personal, cultural, and artistic inheritance to Indigenous artists.”
