Logan MacDonald, “Seal Simulacrum,” 2016
Launch and artist talk 7pm, Thursday 29 March
What started as a project to look at manipulated landscapes, earthworks, structures and signage established by Indigenous communities as a means to assert property against government and/or corporate encroachment – evolved into a lyrical body of work that personally reflects and tries to unpack and negotiate indigenous/settler identity, pan-indigenous cross-cultural exchange, cultural revival, and the tensions that arise from artwork that documents intimacy and viewership.
