NOW ON VIEW: Nathalie Bertin's "Loup Garou & Moccasins: A Story in Multi-Mediums" contains a diverse collection of works that use specific images and materials to reference personal stories from the artist’s life, in addition to folklore and histories drawn from her Algonquin, French, and Métis ancestry.
“Starting at the center, the moccushions represent my early learning and stories I’ve been told. They are my internal world of knowledge and imagination. They represent my foundation.”
The plinth layout suggests how youngsters are called to sit around their teachers, caretakers, and elders to take in stories. “Stories are a part of childhood” Bertin writes, “In Ojibway and Métis tradition, stories are meant for entertainment, but also to instill practical knowledge.” In keeping with this idea, each moccushion was made in relation to a specific story, embedded with symbols and materials that evoke its narrative.
Come by the gallery to see the work and learn about the stories they tell. On until October 29th, admission is always free.
