Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun-UBC MOA Exhibit




We were really blessed and got to go see Lawrence Paul's exhibit at the MOA this summer.
Here's some of my photos.


Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun: Unceded Territories

From the UBC MOA Exhibit
"Vancouver artist Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun, of Coast Salish and Okanagan descent, is showcased in this provocative exhibition of works that confront the colonialist suppression of First Nations peoples and the ongoing struggle for Indigenous rights to lands, resources, and sovereignty."

"That's what I like to do, is to think in existential ways to allow people to say, 'Yeah, we can change, we can make this a better world.' And that takes time."
