Press Release

Duane Linklater (b. 1976, Treaty 9 Territory/Moose Cree First Nation (Canada)) will present a new commission that continues his exploration of long-standing museum conventions and their relation to the material, visual, and cultural history and lived experience of Indigenous peoples. Working across sculpture, painting, and moving image, Linklater’s practice details and interrogates notions of hierarchical power, societal amnesia, loss and identity, and how they are articulated in an institutional context. The exhibition is a collaboration with New Curators and will be curated at Camden Art Centre by students on the 2024/25 programme.

About the Artist

Duane Linklater’s practice is heavily entwined with his Omaskêko Cree identity, community, and heritage. Working across film and video, photography, installation, sculpture, and text, the First Nations artist challenges the relationship between museums and indigenous peoples and their objects.
