Moving the Landscape to Find Ground: Opening
+ Martin Akwiranoron Loft Artist Talk
Post Image presents the first installment of Moving the Landscape to Find Ground, a cycle of artist talks and artist residencies which will take place from September 2022 until May 2023 . The first speaker in the series will be Martin Akwiranoron Loft, photographer, printmaker, and craftsperson from Kahnawá:ke. This series is built from a shared ambition to break open lens-based practices via the interrogation of the colonial prism through which photography exists. We are inviting conversation among all communities impacted by the colonial gaze.
The first gathering will take place on September 27th at 4PM: in-person at Concordia University (EV 11.705, EV Building, 1515 St. Catherine W., Montreal) or online via Zoom. The event will begin with opening words by Elder Kawennotas Sedalia Fazio. After the talk, there will be a public reception with food (EV 11th Floor Terrace).
