These artists were featured speakers at the 2025 Indigenous Art Intensive.

Opening Reception: Wednesday, May 28, 5-7pm
Performance by Peter Morin: Tuesday, May 27, 11am-4pm
In this exhibition, a basket is a container for knowledge, made from futuristic silver reflective mylar in Nicole Neidhardt’s work. This vessel’s coils can become a portal between the networked land and us. A three-channel video installation by Peter Morin traces a single line in the skin over and through becoming an embodied trail connecting ancestors and bodies of rivers and time. While in Justin Wood’s work a still image is a record of time spent with and on the land imbued with careful garments designed to honour and harvest.
