Indigenous Speakers Series: Join Greg Staats on November 28

[Arts Communications]

This is a reminder to join the Indigenous Speakers Series this Thursday, November 28, when we are honoured to present Greg Staats, winner of the 2024 Governor General’s Award for Visual and Media Arts (GGArts) and a 2024-25 Longhouse Labs Fellow here at the University of Waterloo.

"Photography has provided me with an ongoing reciprocity to land, nation, language, community, family and finally to myself."

Watch the 2024 GGArts video about Greg Staats<https://youtu.be/erTHm6L0ReM>.

Greg Staats is Skarù:reˀ [Tuscarora], Hodinöhsö:ni and his lens-based work combines language, mnemonics, and the natural world as an ongoing process of visualizing a Hodinöhsö:ni restorative aesthetic. At this event, Greg will discuss his evolving methodology based on phenomena, lens-based issues, and a lifelong practice focused on Hodinöhsö:ni imagery and the responsibilities to land, body, and memory. He will show selected images that identify key moments of movement over a 40-year career of exhibitions and sharing.

WHEN: Nov 28, 1:30-2:45 PM
