Abstract

"Indian Territory has been created from Edward Poitras' reflections as a Métis artist on the everyday experience of his culture. Eight strident and urgent works constitute a narrative about conflict and struggle, linked by a native desire for a self-determined identity. Together, they take us through several themes, the claim to place and history, and the power of ceremony and personal belief, among them."--Page 6.
