Abstract

In this paper, Métis artist and academic Juliet Mackie and Cree academic and curator Alexandra Nordstrom present a dialogue-driven exchange rooted in their collaboration on the exhibition, Matrilineal Memory (2023). They explore the multifaceted dimensions of Mackie’s role as a scholar, painter, and beadwork artist and examine the ways in which beadwork and portraiture can be used to explore the intricacies of Métis identity. A discussion on the revitalization of cultural and artistic practices emerges as they recount their joint and individual efforts in reclaiming cultural practices and knowledges, interweaving them into their daily lives, creative pursuits, and scholarly endeavors.
