Address: 3475 Albert St, Regina
Admission: There is no cost to attend this event.

Frei Njootli lives and works in their Vuntut Gwitchin homelands in Old Crow, Yukon. Coming from lineages of holocaust survivors, residential school survivors, Nazi-fighters and radical lesbians, this recovering academic is an artist whose life and practice center around Indigenous sovereignty. For Frei Njootli, community organizing, home birth, hunting, sound, performance art, sculpture, sewing, and traditional tattooing are aspects of this work. Their art practice has a photo-adjacent lean, most recently taking the form of epoxy prints of beadwork on hot-rolled steel. Currently nominated for the Yukon Art Prize, they have exhibited and performed internationally and have worked with Macaulay & Company Fine Arts for ten years.

This programming is supported by TD.
