Description:
At a time when a crisis of racism is at the forefront of the collective global consciousness, this painting explores the pride and hope found in reclaiming one’s cultural heritage. The image depicts my Cree/Irish daughter learning about her grandparents’ heritage while on a visit to Ireland. This work is inspired by a Gaelic proverb, shared by my Irish husband: “Ar scáth a chéile a mhaireann na daoine”, meaning, “People live in one another’s shadows” or “people depend upon one another”. The light streaming down onto the ancestral figures signifies a source of life, rekindling, and understanding.
