Threads of Kin and Belonging is a visual art exhibition accompanying the 4th Trinnipeg Live Mixtape project. The first three iterations took place at The Tallest Poppy (Winnipeg, MB), West End Cultural Centre (Winnipeg, MB) and the Remai Modern Art Museum (Saskatoon, SK). This project is an intervention and conversation between Indigenous Nations and Black communities on Treaty One Territory. It is about creating, defining, and collaborating in a space by us and for us—our kin. We are exploring our collective histories and our unique, but intertwined futures—to create threads of kin and belonging.
