“Misplaced Women?” 45 min performance by Tanja Ostojić, Sunday October 16 at 2pm, at tram stop downtown Toronto (corner of McCaul and Dunda streets) in front of the Art Gallery of Ontario, as part of the 7a*11d 2016 Performance Festival in Toronto, Canada.
Dedicated to the missing and murdered indigenous women in Canada.
“The land we are on is the territory of the Huron-Wendat and Petun First Nations, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. The territory was the subject of the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Iroquois Confederacy and the Ojibwe and allied nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes.Today, the meeting place of Toronto is still the home to many indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live in the community, on this territory.”
