In the Apsáalooke (Crow) language, the word Áakiwilaxpaake (People of the Earth) describes Indigenous people living in North America, pointing to a time before colonial borders were established. In this exhibition, curated by the Apsáalooke artist Wendy Red Star, artists from throughout what is now called North America—representing various Native nations and affiliations—offer diverse visions, building on histories of image-making.
