#FeministArtFeature: On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, The Met’s American Wing, home to grand 19th-century visions of “America”, was reclaimed. In an unsanctioned AR intervention titled ENCODED: Change the Story, Change the Future, 17 Indigenous artists digitally overlaid their own works atop the museum’s colonial landscapes, transforming static depictions into living Indigenous presence. Curated by Tracy Renée Rector and an anonymous Indigenous curator in collaboration with Amplifier, ENCODED challenges who gets to define “America” and what stories are remembered or erased. As artist Cannupa Hanska Luger says, “Acting without permission inside a space that defines ‘America’ is in itself a reflection of our existence as a disruption to the colonial agenda.” ✨ Visit art.feminist for more #FeministArtFeatures Source: hyperallergic/monicalaurasimone, amplifierart Image credits: 1.
