Projet de fin d’année de MANAA - 2018

[askmalfama]

In order to steal a rare sapphire, Ari had to dress up for a masquerade ball where it was going to be shown. Unfortunately Orland, AKA Sunflower, had the same job to do for HIS crew... And he’s as flirtatious and fancy as always even when he’s working for a bunch of dirty assassins and thieves.

First look at Fancy Dance

A new trailer has been released for Fancy Dance, which is set to release June 28, 2024.

Since her sister’s disappearance, Jax (Lily Gladstone) has cared for her niece Roki (Isabel Deroy-Olson) by scraping by on the Seneca-Cayuga reservation in Oklahoma. Every spare minute goes into finding her missing sister while also helping Roki prepare for an upcoming powwow. At the risk of Jax losing custody to Roki’s grandfather, Frank (Shea Whigham), the pair hit the road and scour the backcountry to track down Roki’s mother in time for the powwow. What begins as a search gradually turns into a far deeper investigation into the complexities and contradictions of Indigenous women moving through a colonized world while at the mercy of a failed justice system.

WINDOW 50: JAIME BLACK RESPONSE TO MERRITT JOHNSON

Activation of Merritt Johnson’s Fancy Shawl for the frontlines, 2020 by Jaime Black. The shawl is on view in window gallery until December 6.

When I first receive Fancy Shawl for the frontlines I bring it to the Manitoba Legislature grounds where Indigenous groups from across the city are holding a month long vigil and fast to protect children in the 'care' of child and family services. The lawn is covered with hundreds of hand drawn signs that read: Bring Our Children Home.

In Manitoba 90% of children in care are Indigenous.

I bring the shawl to this space thinking of the ways our culture can protect us, remind us, empower us to speak out against injustice. I bring the shawl to this space to bless it with the powerful energy of the women and community members who are working here to reconnect families, to maintain culture and community in spite of the ongoing violence of colonization.

As the shawl is unwrapped it catches the wind, there is a loud sound like thunder as it begins to dance, its dance is an old one, it moves the way grass moves before a storm and in it is the spirit of the resistance.
