The Girls

Billboard project by Sarah Houle

Houle’s photographic series, The Girls follows her nieces as they grow. She captures the everyday, elevating the importance of family through the documentation of love, intimacy and family. The mundanity of the images demystifies contemporary Indigeneity, debunking stereotypes and rebuking the colonial expectations of performing Indigeneity. Centering family, Houle’s work showcases the resiliency present in everyday Indigenous life.
