Story Keeping

Nanaimo Art Gallery’s current feature exhibition, Story Keeping, features new and existing work from Calgary based artists Brittney Namaakki Bear Hat and Richelle Bear Hat.

Drawing from their combined Blackfoot and Dane-Zaa Cree heritage, the exhibit explores storytelling practices and legacies of land and language displacement.

The exhibit celebrates the value of stories carried through everyday lives using photography, video, sculpture and installation.
