Join us for our artist discussion about their work and who they are as artists. There will be a live Q&A at the end of each discussion.<\/h4>\n

Join the Mitchell Museum and the Consulate General of Canada for a virtual discussion with Jaime Black-Morsette, a Red River M\u00e9tis artist and activist living and working on their home territory near the confluence of Manitoba’s Red and Assiniboine rivers.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Founder of The REDress Project in 2009, Black-Morsette has been using their art practice as a way to gather community and create action and change around the epidemic of violence against Indigenous women and girls across Turtle Island and beyond for over 13 years. Black-Morsette’s interdisciplinary art practice includes immersive film and video, installation art, photography and performance art practices to explore themes of memory, identity, place and resistance.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The REDress Project is an installation art project created by M\u00e9tis artist Jaime Black-Morsette.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>The installation consists of hundreds of red dresses suspended in public spaces to mark the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>absence and evoke the presence of Indigenous women and girls who have gone missing or<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>been murdered.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Indigenous women face higher rates of violence than any other cultural group in Canada and<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the United States. Indigenous families and communities have been advocating for generations<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>to make changes to the colonial system that often treat the perpetrators of this violence with<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>impunity. The REDress Project works to create space for families of Murdered and Missing<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Indigenous Persons (MMIP) and their supporters to tell their stories and to find solidarity in the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>struggle to protect the rights of Indigenous women and girls. The project provides a space to<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>hear from frontline community workers, Indigenous women academics, elders and knowledge<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>keepers on how we can work together as a community to bring justice to Missing and Murdered<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) and their families.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Founded in 2009, The REDress Project was first exhibited at the University of Winnipeg<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Campus in Winnipeg, Manitoba, with over one hundred dresses displayed across campus. Over<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the past ten years The REDress Project has travelled to over 50 locations across Canada and<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>internationally.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The REDress Project has been shown at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, Ontario, at the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>National Museum of The American Indian in Washington, DC and is on permanent display at<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>The Canada Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
