Lecture: Paul Seesequasis on Exploring Archives and Identity: Indigenous Perspectives in PhotographyTuesday, June 25, at 7 PM
Join us for an enlightening conversation with Paul Seesequasis, a leading voice in Indigenous arts and cultural advocacy, as he discusses the transformative power of archival photography and its role in shaping narratives of identity and representation.
In this thought-provoking talk, Seesequasis will share insights from his visionary work with the Indigenous Archival Photo Project, offering a glimpse into the process of archival reclamation and historical rediscovery. By showcasing archival photographs that illuminate everyday life in Indigenous communities, Seesequasis highlights the resilience, diversity, and richness of Indigenous cultures throughout history.
In conjunction with the exhibition James Nicholas and Sandra Semchuk: We Are Here / Ōta nitayānān, Seesequasis will explore the potential for intersections between personal narrative, cultural heritage, and photography. While the exhibition delves into the intimate dialogue between Semchuk’s Ukrainian-Canadian settler background and Nicholas’s Rock Cree heritage, Seesequasis will broaden the conversation to encompass a wider spectrum of Indigenous perspectives and representation.
Free, everyone welcome.
