Ursula Johnson: Mi’kwite’tmn

The show’s Mi’kmaw title translates as “Do You Remember,” signalling Ursula Johnson’s use of deconstructed basketry elements to address ancestry, identity and cultural knowledge. The three-part exhibition includes silkscreened and sandblasted images of baskets made by the artist’s great-grandmother; an “endurance performance” of the artist processing ash wood to the point of exhaustion; and an interactive archival and museological space.
