From the Spirit 26 Aaron Paquette
24m
This young Edmontonian is an artist, educator and community builder. A descendant of the Cree, Cherokee and Norwegian people, Aaron uses distinct colour and clear forms in his work. In talking about his work, Aaron says, “When I began to work seriously as a painter, I wanted to do something that would help reinforce the positive aspects of Native spirituality, and to reflect back to First Nations people everywhere the feeling of strength, unity and pride in our shared heritage. I hope that my works can act as a catalyst for greater understanding.”
