Aurora Wolfe
Media: Painting, Sculpture, Beadwork, Music
Aurora Wolfe is a multimedia artist, researcher, and musician of Cree (Beardies and Okemasis Cree Nation) and Scottish descent. Her work centres on the relationships between Indigeneity and institutions, teasing out stories that have been overshadowed by the dominant colonial narrative. She explores dynamic relationality and creates art that generates acts of kinship with the past, present, and future. She moves between many mediums, such as painting, sculpture, beadwork, and music, and has recently focused on the relationships between Indigenous bodies and the land, niska (geese) as a symbol for Indigenous complexities, and the blending of traditional beadwork with other forms of art making. She holds a Bachelor of Arts with a double major in Indigenous Studies and Studio Art from the University of Saskatchewan and is currently pursuing an MFA in Studio Practise at the same institution.
