Sonny Assu: Territorial Acknowledgements

to

Campbell River Art Gallery 1235 Shopper's Row, Campbell River, British Columbia V9W 2C7

Exhibition Opening and Reception, Thursday, July 12th from 7 to 9 pm

Sonny Assu’s Territorial Acknowledgements to be shown in our Satellite Gallery, are painted interventions onto found objects. Using bold imagery and colour, Sonny reasserts an Indigenous presence onto the romanticized Canadian landscape. His references are pointedly political and are articulated through his unique use of design and symbolism. The work takes a new direction as Sonny works with paintings he has found in thrift stores across Canada. Ascribing his marks upon readymade paintings, he engages in acts of resistance and reiteration
