Description

BUNDLE incorporates several different components folded into a literal “bundle” of knowledge: Cree oral teachings and a song; a poetic zine that combines intersectional feminist and Cree histories and prophecies; cedar and tobacco medicines; a robin print on birch-bark; and photo images connected to people and place.

This project is the result of years of conversations, collaborations and learnings between different Elders, Knowledge Keepers, youth, and friends from several Treaty 6 nations in Alberta and Saskatchewan— Onion Lake Cree Nation, Big River First Nation, Saddle Lake Cree Nation — and communities across Canada and around the world. Respect for Indigenous knowledge and data sovereignty has informed this co-creation grounded in intercultural knowledge sharing.
