▣ (via Longhouse Series - Contemporary Artist Sonny Assu - Body of Work - sonnyassu.com -)
Recently regarded as a ‘Vanguard’ for his piece in the Vancouver Art Gallery’s exhibit, “How Soon Is Now?”, Sonny Assu continues to push the boundaries of contemporary art by challenging the perception of “Indian” art. His work comes from an exploration of his mixed ancestry and how we use items of consumer culture to define our personal lineage.
