Multidisciplinary artist Skeena Reece will give an artist talk on Wednesday, Jan. 27, in support of her newly opened exhibition in Harrisonburg, Virginia.

The exhibition, entitled Honey and Sweetgrass, opens Jan. 25 at the Duke Hall Gallery. Works from across Skeena’s diverse practice will be on view, including performance art, videos, photography and installation works. The works advance Skeena’s ongoing engagement with “Indigenous culture, myth and humour,” and examination of “racial stereotypes and the effects of colonization,” according to the gallery.

“Skeena Reece is an important voice in contemporary art,” Beth Hinderliter, director of the Duke Hall Gallery, says. “She offers us insight into the care, compassion and strength of Indigenous women as well as giving us critiques of the violence of colonialism.”
