L&#8217;nuk hieroglyphic written language of komqwejwi\u2019kasikl comes from our shared connection to the land, to mother earth. This country also shares a dark legacy where children and our shared histories were buried. Communities at large are acknowledging it together as something we can no longer ignore. Emerging from a workshop during the Antigonite Art After Dark Festival &#8211; light messages were carved by the community, L\u2019nuk and settlers combined to honour the survivors, the children missing and found in the mass unmarked graves. Together the community reflected on the shared history of the residential school system across Canada and on reconciliation as shared responsibility. By approaching each light box, exhibition visitors will light up the ceiling with community komqwejwi&#8217;kasikl messages of grief, sorrow, love and care. Each box acknowledges our shared responsibilities, our shared legacy and as a way to heal together as neighbours of this country and landscapes to which the komqwejwi&#8217;kasikl language comes from.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>After the performance with local artists Renae Morriseau and Cease Wyse, artist Michelle Sylliboy will talk about her artwork with the audience.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\r\n<blockquote><strong class=\"is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">About the Artist<\/strong>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-26\" src=\"https:\/\/livebiennale.ca\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/Michelle-Sylliboy-Headshot-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"Head shot of the artist Michelle Sylliboy\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/livebiennale.ca\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/Michelle-Sylliboy-Headshot-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/livebiennale.ca\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/Michelle-Sylliboy-Headshot-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/livebiennale.ca\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/Michelle-Sylliboy-Headshot-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/livebiennale.ca\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/Michelle-Sylliboy-Headshot-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/livebiennale.ca\/2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/Michelle-Sylliboy-Headshot-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>Three time Award-winning author and interdisciplinary artist <strong>Michelle Sylliboy<\/strong> (Mi\u2019kmaq\/L\u2019nu) was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and raised on her traditional L\u2019nuk territory in We\u2019koqmaq, Cape Breton.
