Creative Access Description

Black and white landscape oriented image of two performers. On the left side of the image stands a white man with short hair parted in the front wearing a suit jacket with a subtle checked pattern, black slacks, and thick rimmed glasses. The man holds an open hardback book in front of his chest with both hands at the bottom of the spine. He gazes down at the pages with a neutral expression on his face. On the right side of the image at the bottom of the frame the second performer, an Ojibwe man with the right side of his body painted a dark colour and wearing part of a coyote pelt on his head, the animal's head covering his face as a mask, is seated on the floor. He leans against the wall in a relaxed pose, his left arm supported by his knee with hand and fingers dangling and his head resting on his left shoulder. In his right hand he holds a beer can. Both performers are situated in front of two white walls of a gallery with a short length of exposed interior piping at shoulder height where the walls meet in the corner of the room.
