Ongoing Ba’oya Hubuk’esi; I Love Them By the Edge explores the plurality of queer Indigenous intimacy and erotics alongside connections to family, community and territory. The exhibition features three filmworks and photographs that document activations of place through performances with collaborative partners. These activations expand across media addressing the ways in which relations to territory and community shape Indigiqueer identity. As a registered reconnecting two-spirit member of the Tl’azt’en Nation, Wright explores what it means to cultivate relationships with territories that are beyond what is known as one’s home or homeland, the feeling of familiarity within and beyond the contours of biological familial connection, and the expanding bounds of queering land-based Indigenous art.
