Creative Access Description

A black and white landscape image of three people performing under stage light in a dimly lit room. In the centre is a Métis woman with long dark wavy hair who is wearing a leather jacket with long hanging fringes, a dark-coloured shirt, shiny skin-tight leggings, and a bandana rolled and tied as a headband around her head. She is holding a tall, dark grey feather while twisting her head to her left and fixing her gaze upwards towards the top left corner of the image. On her right, a Snaw-Naw-As man wearing a white coat approaches her with his arm bent at a 90-degree angle, sort of reaching toward her. He has long dark hair tied back in a pony and wears a light-coloured t-shirt and white pants. Behind the woman are several cubic wooden crates used as stage props, and standing behind the crates is a Six Nations woman with long dark hair and a long white coat. In the background are white gallery walls, vertical piping and a large collage-like artwork hanging high up on the wall, as the tops of the room’s edge melt into the shadows.
