Intuition Archive for
a Radical Future, Tania Willard
Acrylic mirror, satin ribbon, dyed buck tails, wood
24 x 24 inches
This series of work builds on recent artist projects that
look at the current moment of transformative energy that could destabilize
colonial institutions and realize decolonial futures…if we let it. Drawing from
the artist’s previous work in archives with Secwépemc content like the Kamloops
Museum Association and the American Museum of Natural History the artist
positions slogan like future imaginings that relate to present political
moments like community division over the TMX pipeline in dialogue with archival
images. Both reflecting and projecting the political present, the historical
and the futures possible should we choose to manifest them.
