Wayfinders brings together new and recent works by several mid-career women artists working in Edmonton. In their respective practices the artists in this exhibition locate themselves within their own realities and map out varying ways in which to navigate the world. This personal cartography grounds and locates each artist within diverse interwoven networks, material explorations and conceptual structures. Expansive notions of community, knowledge, family, ancestry, and storytelling coalesce to reveal intersecting yet independent points of view. The exhibition is organized into several intimate conversations between artists that explore themes of balance, family, health, location, navigation, and folklore. Each individual artwork serves as a point of orientation, coming together to form a shared map of contact, counterpoints, and complex constellations. These conversations blend into one another, representing the many concerns of women artists working in Edmonton today.

This exhibition is organized by the Art Gallery of Alberta and curated by Lindsey Sharman.

nâpêhkâsowinowâk explores the evolving meaning of being a warrior in today’s world through the eyes of young Indigenous men.

Instead of focusing solely on traditional notions of bravery, the exhibition expands the idea of the “warrior” to include witnessing, recording, and bearing testimony to lived experiences. Through paintings by Lonigan Gilbert and Coda Girvan, alongside powerful prints and installations from Evan Robinson, Matthew Provost, and seth cardinal dodginghorse, the exhibition delves into themes of identity, pop culture, celebration, emotion, political response, and the complex layers of grief. The exhibition is further enriched by the stirring spoken word poetry of the late Taran Kootenhayoo, whose words amplify the voices of a generation navigating identity, resistance, and transformation.

nâpêhkâsowinowâk invites visitors to reflect on what courage, resilience, and warriorhood look like in a contemporary context, challenging preconceptions while honouring the unique perspectives of a new generation.
