Caroline Monnet
Caroline Monnet (Anishinaabe / French, born in Ottawa, Canada; lives in Tiohtià:ke / Mooniyang / Montreal, Canada) is interested in representations of identity; her own Algonquian roots and cultural histories serve as fertile ground for her reflections. In her multidisciplinary works, industrial materials and seriality come into dialogue with vernacular objects or motifs. By bringing to light the inequalities and stereotypes that stigmatize Indigenous communities, she addresses the complexity of the issues related to Indigeneity, ultimately defined today as hybrid and timeless.
