Description

The indigenous peoples of Canada were/are systematically marginalized by EuroCanadians… given treaties and lands that further pushed the peoples to the periphery of Canadian life… but not to worry: plenty of prayers were given.

On the back, the versocollage contains leftover parts of this and other creations (including bits of “Munitoba”, “McClung/Riel”, “Desmond/Douglas”, “Brutish Colunbia” and “Union Joke”). Included also are the black & white versions of some of the process photos from this page. It also has the toothbrush used to create the fine spatters on this work and part of the last card from the artist’s mother.
