Audie Murray: Weaving the Threads
Weaving the Threads is an exploration of dreams, liminality, and intergenerational acts of care. Inspired by the cosmos and the story of the spider told by Wilfred Buck, the use of stitching, braiding and material collaboration fabricates a space of resistance. Creating from a place of love allows for moments of healing and growth. In these moments we are able to dream, and through this dreaming, we are reclaiming time, knowledge, understanding, and ways of connecting beyond capitalist ideologies. The act of care is enacted through the process of creating each individual artwork. At the same time, these pieces mirror back this sentiment to the viewer and artist.
AUDIE MURRAY is a multi-disciplinary, Michif artist raised and working in Regina, Saskatchewan, Treaty 4 territory. Her art practice is informed by the process of making and explores themes of duality, connectivity, healing and growth. Working with specific material choices, this practice is a way to reclaim and work through various subject matter, much of it relating to the body, space, and relationships. Audie holds a visual arts diploma from Camosun College, 2016; Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Regina, 2017; and is currently an MFA student at the University of Alberta. She has shown at various locations including the Alberta Art Gallery, The Vancouver Art Gallery, and the Anchorage Museum.
