"We really dampen, or cancel, or try to bury a lot of dark history - to pretend like we have moved on, or like we've emerged as a society," Weefur says. The truth is, we haven't.
"From The Searchers to lesser-known films like Maliglutit, the exhibition confronts complex narratives surrounding the representation of Indigenous cultures in Western cinema."
"Weefur refers to Western landscapes as 'a feminine presence, vast and unconquerable, standing in defiance of this rigid masculinity.' This perspective transforms the reading of the genre."
