Water and Land Protection Banners
Onaman Collective (Christi Belcourt-Isaac Murdock)
Description
Onaman Collective’s Water and Land Protection Banners are a critical and pressing statement about the ongoing exploitation of water resources and extractive activities across Turtle Island. By using similar pictographs of Ojibway spirit writing about the sacred nature of the environment and slogans protesting pipelines, they continue to raise awareness by inviting people to participate and disseminate land and water protection demonstrations. The Onaman Collective was founded in 2014 by Indigenous artists and environmentalists Christi Belcourt, Isaac Murdoch, and Erin Konsmo. Their art-based activism raises the voices of communities engaged in water and land protection actions as they relate to First Nation communities and territories.Additional Information
