A Kind of Prayer presents the first-ever survey dedicated to the
late Cree artist Kimowan Metchewais and his singular body of work
on Indigenous identity, community, and colonial memory. After his
untimely death at age forty-eight in 2011, Metchewais left behind a
wholly original and expansive body of photographic and mixed-media
work. At the center of his practice is an extensive Polaroid
archive, which addresses a range of themes-including the artist's
body, performative self-portraiture, language, landscapes, and
everyday subjects-and served as the source material for works in
other media, such as painting and collage. Metchewais's exquisitely
layered works offer a poetic meditation on his connection to home
and land, while challenging conventional narratives and
representations of Indigeneity. Metchewais was a contemporary
artist of stunning originality, and until now, his work has been
woefully understudied and underexposed. A Kind of Prayer is a
comprehensive overview that showcases this essential artist's
astonishing vision.
