An Opening Conversation: Marianne and Midori Nicolson
Join artist Marianne Nicolson and her sister, biologist Midori Nicolson, for a conversation celebrating the opening of Carried by rivers, held by lands, the culminating group exhibition of the eponymous multi-year initiative.
Together, Marianne and Midori will introduce the Dzawada̱’enux̱w community installation presented in the exhibition and discuss the intertwined relationships between people, culture, and the Gwa’yi River. Reflecting on efforts to restore traditional fishing technologies, cultural practices, and forms of knowledge disrupted through colonial dispossession, they will consider what it means for knowledge, skills, and people to return home. Through stories of the eulachon run and the river that sustains it, the conversation will explore how cultural renewal and environmental stewardship remain inseparable.
Please note that the conversation will begin promptly at 7 PM. Following the talk, guests are invited to stay for light refreshments and exhibition viewing.
