Continuum
Johnnie Diacon and Hotvlkvce Harjo
August 21 - November 16, 2025

Curated by Miranda Kyle, curator of Indigenous arts of the Americas, this exhibition explores the concept of Indigenous futurisms through the lens of traditional lifeways as a continuous and evolving practice that informs and shapes contemporary and future Indigenous realities. Both artists delve into the intersection of tradition and futurity, presenting a vibrant narrative that challenges static perceptions of Indigenous cultures. At the heart of this exhibition is the notion of continuum—the seamless integration of traditional Indigenous knowledge and practices into contemporary art forms, paving the way for future explorations. Johnnie Diacon and Hotvlkvce Harjo engage with their cultural heritage not as a relic of the past but as a dynamic foundation for creative expression, continuity, and possibility.
