Through their work, they are exploring how their identities are impacted or influenced by their ancestors. “Clear and strong self-identity comes from being in constant communication with our ancestors,” say Kanani and Steph. “This exhibition explores the ways in which different communities maintain their connections. For many, being in relationship with one’s ancestors is an act of survivance and through sharing our stories we can start to imagine a collective existence.”
