Beads they’re sewn so tight
More LessAbstractCurated by Lisa Myers, Textile Museum of Canada, Toronto, October 10, 2018 - May 26, 2019
This exhibition demonstrates a shift from archaic notions of Indigenous cultural production and celebrates the ongoing perseverance of Indigenous knowledges, which are steeped in technological advancements.
