Art, ancestors and the land: summer season opens at Art Gallery of Greater Victoria

Bloodline opens on June 18 at Victoria’s premier art museum, launching its summer season alongside another new exhibition.
The exhibition arises from artist McMaster's mixed Plains Cree, Métis, Dutch, and British heritage and focuses on her direct ancestors from Saskatchewan.
Bloodline includes large-scale photographs, sculptural works, and immersive video installations, featuring a central collection that delves into generational memory by reflecting on the artist’s female ancestors.
Chief curator Steven McNeil explains that this summer’s program features a modern focus, with all three shows highlighting Indigenous creators or their viewpoints.
The season offers three distinct experiences interrogating identity, place, and protection, and includes a free June 18 celebration with performances and remarks.
