Intangible Cultural Assets

Created as part of a group exhibition in response to participating in a cultural tour in South Korea where we visited many arts studios and spaces. We learned that artists in South Korea are considered what they call Intangible Cultural Assets, which largely contrasts with the North American artist experience and relevance of work. However, there were also a long standing and stringent traditional standards of training and expression that also contrasts with the western experience, for better or for worse.

In the spirit of respect and efforts towards reconciliation, I acknowledge the place that I call home to be on the ancestral territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani First Nations), as well as Treaty 7 signatories, the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Îyârhe Nakoda (Chiniki, Bearspaw, Goodstoney First Nations). Today this land is also home to the Otipemisiwak Métis Government (Districts 4, 5 + 6) and many other First Nations and Inuit from across Turtle Island. I am so grateful to be here and for the care provided to my ancestors when they first arrived on these shores by First Nations communities.
