Chatting with Hamilton Artists Inc.‘s Indigenous Curator in Residence, Alex Jacobs-Blum, about the exhibition Born Celestial, on view now until August 13 plus a performance night July 20 (7-9pm).

“Born Celestial investigates ways in which Indigenous artists utilize ancestral and contemporary knowledge to build futurities. Futurities draws upon human and other-than-human relations across time and space. The artists trace ancestral knowledges through their reflections, while operating in resistance to western consciousness. They are collectively inspiring futures centering on Indigenous ways of knowing.”
