Content note: Topics explored in the films may include sensitive subject matter, including colonial trauma and environmental destruction.
Etuaptmumk / Two-Eyed Seeing: Ways of Being and Seeing (TES) is a collaborative, process-based project led by Lara Aysal (Core Artist) and Rosemary Georgeson (Coast Salish / Sahtu Dene storyteller). The project brings together Indigenous Knowledge Holders, artists, activists, and youth to create space for stories about moving forward in an era shaped by ecological destruction, climate crisis, and the ongoing work of decolonization.
The program will feature a screening of the Summer film, part of a four-film series inspired by the seasons. In the films, Rosemary Georgeson sits down with Knowledge Holders and community voices to explore how the elements of Mother Earth speak to us. Through personal reflections and creative dialogue, participants share their observations of environmental change and their hopes for the future of the lands and waters we all depend on.
Following the screening, guests are invited to stay for a panel discussion led by Rosemary Georgeson, featuring Knowledge Keepers from the film series, including Dr. Lyana Patrick (Summer) and Chief Darren Blaney (Spring). Together, they will reflect on the themes explored in the films and discuss how collaboration between knowledge systems can guide us toward more sustainable and respectful relationships with the natural world.
