Edwards - your silence creates a world for my language - your silence creates a world for my language This durational, process-driven text/ile installation project speaks with, and to, the quiet violences traced together in the s-groove lines of the invasive emerald ash borer. Important ecologically and culturally (canoes, baseball bats, and other material culture), the ashtree, with its vulvic bark, is also a source of women’s medicine. Its devastation is linked to the same processes and silences that frame and re/produce environmental racism and gendered violence. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6053b81e6959e416bd80f79f/1623531935315-JQ1VSUA6TWCSEAMG5OYD/image-asset.jpeg Sophie Anne Edwards - your silence creates a world for my language - sophie anne edwards sophie anne edwards (she/her/settler) is an environmental artist, geopoet and curator of English and French descent based on Mnidoo Mnising (Manitoulin Island), northeastern Ontario. A geographer (SSHRC funded, PhD Candidate, Queen’s U) she is interested in the spatial imaginary, geopoetics, creative field research, and the possibilities of interspecies collaboration. Through her field- and installation-based practice she engages with the complexities of local ecosystems (social, cultural, historical, colonial, environmental). She is a co-founder of 4elements Living Arts, acting as 4e’s founding artistic/executive director from 2003-2018 during which time she designed and curated many community engaged projects including the Connections Trail which won an Ontario Lieutenant Governor award for cultural landscape heritage preservation, The Bonnie Blink land use history research project (in collaboration with Queen’s U Geography), River School (the Art + Science of River Ecology), and Elemental Festival (multidisciplinary site-specific work). She has designed and facilitated hundreds of workshops, engagements and collaborative processes for artists, educators, children, families and intergenerational groups. She is a sought after facilitator by educators interested in creative research, land-based early learning, and ‘Reggio’ approaches. Her curatorial, media and visual and writing work are supported by the Ontario Arts Council, and the Canada Council for the Arts.

As a mental health counsellor my artistic expressions become saturated with psychological undertones that addresses the adversities imposed by the government contributing to the demise of Indigenous culture and illness in First Nations people. Threats to Indigenous People’s cultural, economic, and social rights is a subject I would like to bring to light where these issues receive significantly less public attention. There is little recognition how , cultural genocide, land loss, oppression, ongoing racism, and poverty have contributed to physical and psychological illnesses. Today particularly, Indigenous communities struggle with substance use and suicide; hence they sadly continue to be stigmatized and oppressed further. The traditional concept of the Medicine Wheel (spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental aspects of life equally integrated) are used in my artwork because of its holistic healing properties. Colour combinations on each clay plate represent the colours of the Indigenous Medicine Wheel in which white represents North, yellow represents East, black represents West, and red represents South. The reverse side of each clay plate is painted orange to represent the “Every Child Matters” movement. This decision was made as a response to the recent discoveries in 2021 of 215 skeletal remains of children at the Kamloops residential school in BC. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6053b81e6959e416bd80f79f/1651098101420-613BU5YU1PUM3OVW7WB7/Arty1.jpg Naghmeh Dadgostar Understanding the concept of intersectionality enabled me to take an analytical view about the Indigenous social and political identities and how they have mixed to promote discrimination whether systemic or in the shape of microaggressions. It is fundamentally important to understand that trauma can manifest itself physically and psychologically in subsequent generations. Epigenetic plasticity can reset when the environmental insults are no longer present, or when we have changed sufficiently to address environmental challenges in a new way. Indigenous peoples are holistic in their healing, and that art, as healing, is a form of aesthetic and spiritual connection they have with the land and with their communities. Observing and studying works of Indigenous artists such as Audie Murray, Olivia Whetung, Nadia Myre, and Rebecca Belmore, has greatly inspired me to create this sculptural work I call: “Faces of Intergenerational Trauma”. I want to give a voice to these faceless innocent children and be able to memorialise their anonymousness. Their voiceless echoes will always reflect endlessly; their unique stories are never lost. https://180projects.org/shemia-nelson daily 0.75 2022-04-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6053b81e6959e416bd80f79f/1651017814105-2O3X26LWTLMT2D72U5OS/Golden+Brown+%281%29.JPG Shemia Nelson For this project I am making digital drawings of my son and my niece and nephew showing the strong resilient kids they are and continue to be. I will be showing our strong children being raised up with their culture. Back in the days, when my father and grandmother were young, practicing our culture was against the law and was torn away from us in the Residential Schools. My hope is for my artwork to impact other Anishinaabe children having hard times; whether from not self identifying with the culture, struggling in schools, those who have been Christianized, or those harmed by the intergenerational impacts of residential schools. Often in our past, our people didn’t want to say who we are, out of fear, or imposed shame, or because we were forced to be raised in a white way rather than our own. For myself, I had a hard time self identifying due to hearing my fathers stories; as I grew and thought these things would happen again and that was terrifying. I want to ensure that my children and my nieces and nephews and all other Anishinaabe children do not have to face that same fear. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6053b81e6959e416bd80f79f/1651020258073-B0PDSLLHJAUAK9FMLEVX/IMG_3866+%281%29.jpeg Shemia Nelson I want to bring our culture back that is rightfully ours, to finally be ourselves and to always be ourselves. I want my images to help bring happiness back to our children; they are going to know their grandparents were survivors. I want the children to know they don’t have to hide or be scared of who they are.

Gray I am a Mother of two Darlings, Gramma of Mr. Darling, and a Mature Art Student. I returned to Algoma University over three years ago to complete my degree. This time in the Bachelor of Fine Arts Program. I fast tracked my time here in the program due to being on a leave from my work as the Garden River First Nation Public Library’s Resource Centre Coordinator (Librarian). I have been in that position for just over 18 years and I return to it at the end of my courses. I have spent these past few years learning quite a few new skills as well as increasing my knowledge in areas of Aboriginal art and historical practices. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6053b81e6959e416bd80f79f/1618351977145-TOTS321Z16FS0Q91RQG8/Screen+Shot+2021-04-10+at+5.10.18+PM+copy.jpg Irene M.
