Uncovering Hidden Histories
Through multimedia installations and sculpture, Mi’kmaq artist Teresa Marshall exposes the realities of colonialism and racism. Works like “Elitekey” and “Hide and Seek: The Souls You Keep Locked Away in God’s Closet” tell haunting stories of erasure, conflict, and resilience. Marshall’s art forces a confrontation with history, ensuring that the voices of the past are heard loud and clear in the present.
