Guest curated by Salish artist Eliot White-Hill, Kwulasultun, the exhibition will showcase 11 Coast and Interior Salish artists working across sculpture, printmaking, textiles, painting, and mixed media. This unique exhibition will illuminate the deep cultural, linguistic, and artistic connections shared across the Salish world.
To date, most institutions have focused on Coastal Salish art; however, with this exhibition, the Bill Reid Gallery highlights the interconnectivity between Interior and Coast Salish art. Historically, Salish art has been marginalized and overlooked in comparison to other Northwest Coast styles.
This exhibition directly addresses that inequity by celebrating the aesthetic, cultural, and conceptual richness of Salish art, positioning it as both vital and visionary. The curatorial vision is built around the river as a physical and symbolic connector, exploring identity, land, water, and evolving cultural practices.
The exhibition will feature established artists who have paved the way, such as Susan Point and Angela Paul, along with emerging artists showcasing the future of Salish art.
