Indigenous artists and storytellers have inspired each other for millennia in a rich cultural
exchange that continues to this day. Hear from a panel of First Nations artists and authors gathered
by First Nations Curator Ellen van Neerven as they discuss the creative peers and heroes who have
influenced their work, and how the interplay of art and writing by First Nations creatives can reshape
how we see ourselves as a nation. This session highlights the influence and collaboration of poets
and artists and the intersection between their chosen mediums. Poet Charmaine Papertalk Green,
photo-media artist Dianne Jones, and glass artist Yhonnie Scarce appear in conversation with Jeanine
Leane.
