Native Niches: Ecological Identity

Description: Each of us inhabits a niche in the natural world, each a member of our ecological communities with a responsibility to the landscape around us. This concept is best illustrated by the Traditional Ecological Knowledge that Indigenous people have fostered for millennia. Native Niches invites both the artist and guest to explore their position in ecological past, present and future. It investigates how Indigenous cultures and experiences have been influenced by flora and fauna, and envisions a future where people are no longer discrete from the web of life.
