| Description: | Reconnect: Presentation of the Mootookakio'ssin and Concepts Have Teeth projects The presentation is organized by Worlding Northern Art (WONA), a research group based at UiT The Arctic University of Norway. Its goal is to strengthen research in art history and visual culture in Northern Norway and the Circumpolar North, and to incorporate curatorial practices and artistic research. The Mootookakio'ssin and Concepts Have Teeth projects aim to reconnect Blackfoot items in UK museums with Blackfoot people and assist in processes of knowledge renewal and transmission using new technologies. The microsite is a part of the Blackfoot Digital Library, an online resource for all those now living in kitawahsinnoon. Here we have created a space that harnesses new technologies for creating and interacting with 3D and RTI images of Blackfoot items. The name, Mootookakio’ssin, was given to the project by Dr. Leroy Little Bear. In English it means distant awareness. We are a large interdisciplinary team of Indigenous and non-indigenous artists and researchers led by Elders from across the Blackfoot Confederacy. Mootookakio'ssin supports artists in addressing the legacies of colonialism, the relationship between physical and digital artworks, and how identity is entangled with these practices. |
