Indigenous Practice

How can we envision radical futures that embrace the richness of our homes and roots while critically examining their historical foundations? In Indigenous Practices, ICI serves as a platform for exploring ideas of Indigeneity and futurity within a global context. At the heart of this initiative is Soundings: An Exhibition in Five Parts, curated by Candice Hopkins and Dylan Robinson, which employs the concept of scores as a catalyst for decolonization. Soundings, like ICI itself, evolve in response to the communities it engages with, incorporating diverse artworks and experiences as it travels. Indigenous Practices also maintain ongoing dialogues with global thought leaders. Through our inaugural Indigenous Curatorial Research Fellowship, scholar Jordan Wilson advances his research on Indigenous language reclamation and pilots Towards Accountability, a series of interdisciplinary discussions among cultural workers on art, institutions, and the ethical responsibilities of curatorial practitioners on Indigenous territories.
