This month we meet artist Annie Beach, a Cree/Saulteaux/Ukrainianvisual artist born, based and rooted in Winnipeg, Manitoba. They were curated by Kiana Compton of the AGO Youth Advisory. “Annie is a visual artist that truly walks in this life carrying the teachings from her culture and represents them in her art. Something that is super-admirable about Annie is that she stands up for what is right and always speaks up. Annie is a proud Cree person and her culture is directly honoured in her work. Many Indigenous people can look at it and also see themselves.”
