Discover Unique Indigenous Art

For Lana Whiskeyjack (Saddle Lake Cree Nation), art is ceremony, a sacred research method, and a transformative form of story living. For her, the Indigenous art process is nothing short of a revolution.

As an Indigiologist, visual storyteller, and Associate Professor at the University of Alberta, Lana synthesizes nêhiyaw (Cree) ontology and pedagogy with contemporary arts-based inquiry. Her work explores the complexities of Indigenous worldviews and experiences, creating a living dialogue between the land, ancestral wisdom, and the future.

Grounded in the belief that creativity is a vital tool for self-determination, language reclamation, cultural revival, and restorative justice, Lana’s scholarship doesn't just exist in theory, her creative living work breathes in the vibrant, tactile world of visual expression.
