Pieces brings together the artwork of settler artist Victoria Kjargaard, in dialogue with Nłeʔkepmx curator Elsie Joe. As well as being Kjargaard’s personal reckoning, the exhibition and collaboration enacts reconciliation through a process of coming to terms with and communicating difficult histories. Victoria Kjargaard’s graphic compositions depict images of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School and its residents combined with natural imagery. The work is a memorial to young lives taken and provides space to pause for reflection, recognition, and connection with this violent past.
