While their gaze can be critical, it can also be awestruck. They are drawn to certain objects and, through their art, recontextualize them within contemporary realities in sometimes surprising, or even unsettling, ways.\u201d<br \/>\n<strong>\u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.musee-mccord-stewart.ca\/en\/collections\/team\/guislaine-lemay\/\">Guislaine Lemay<\/a>, Curator, Material Culture<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cAs I viewed the objects in the collection, I was really struck by the energy that women had put into decorating everyday tools like combs and fish hooks. The piece I created for the exhibition is without a doubt the most challenging project I have ever done as an artist, to date. Beadwork demands considerable physical and mental strength. This research and creation process has heightened my respect for the work of Indigenous women and strengthened my love and admiration for my culture.\u201d<br \/>\n<strong>\u2014 Niap, Artist in residence, 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"cta\" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.musee-mccord-stewart.ca\/en\/blog\/?search=%22artist-in-residence%22\">More on the Blog<i class=\"arrow-right-thickicon-\"><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Artist-in-Residence program was created in 2012 out of a desire to bring on a new meaning to the McCord Stewart Museum\u2019s collections through the eyes of a contemporary artist.
