Ancestral Inheritance with Edzi’u, Samantha Nock & Evan Ducharme

Familial lineage has its hand in shaping the work that artists and creators give life, whether it’s obvious or not. Ancestral Inheritance explores and showcases the ways in which three Indigenous artists explore their familial influence, through music, poetry, and fashion.

Have a dose of halfbreed reasoning with poet Samantha Nock‘s dreamlike prose. Fashion designer Evan Ducharme shares how his deep and nuanced connection to his Métis family and ancestors have influenced his work in the fashion medium.
