Ahsén:nase Douglas is a Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) painter\, children’s story book author\, educator and urban NDN with roots in Kahnawà:ke Mohawk Territory. He works primarily with oil on canvas and describes himself as a figurative painter whose work\, while exploring Indigenous themes\, does not follow the rigid characteristics of what is stereotypically considered “Indigenous Art” within the context of a commercial North America. \nHis culture\, he states “…is an abundant source of creative expression” that helps him to entwine traditional values and experiences within contemporary subject matter. \nThe artist’s work currently explores Indigenous identity\, culture\, perspectives and stories through the “figure” as well as characterizations. His paintings can be found within private and public collections across Canada and the United States\, as well as Australia. \nHe is self-taught with formal training in art history and visual design\, photography\, computer science\, social science and education. As an Indigenous Artist in Residence for the YRDSB he has been given the opportunity to share his art\, culture and stories to a variety of students over the years. \nAhsén:nase is also recognized by the Ontario Arts Council as well as  the Canada Council for the Arts as a professional “Indigenous and Visual Artist”. \nWhile he finds it amusing to watch people try to pronounce his Kanien’keha:ka name\, he simply asks to be called “Dee”. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\nNovember 5\, 2021 – April 16\, 2022 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Our Elders tell us that our feet have walked upon the back of Turtle Island for time immemorial.

Home to Orillia\,” we interviewed eleven individuals from six continents who immigrated to Orillia to ask them these questions.  Their incredible stories of resilience and courage in the face of changing circumstances will be displayed at OMAH\, alongside some of the objects they chose to bring with them.  Come visit the museum to learn about the amazing stories of people living right here in our community.  “Welcome Home to Orillia\,” coming soon to OMAH. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n OTHER EXIBITIONS\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

and Waterline/Timeline.  Unfurled marks Price’s first solo exhibition with OMAH. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details\nJuly 16 – October 30\, 2021 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

fur and animal forms.  It will be part of a colonial parlour installation in the exhibition. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n This is an exhibition that playfully speculates on how animals might choose to engage with\, frame\, label and question natural history objects held within the archives of museums.   The North American Fur Trade lasted approximately 350 years between 1530 and 1880.   The Atherley Narrows\, a site that sits between Lakes Simcoe and Couchiching\, was a source of fishing and hunting for local Indigenous people as far back as 5000 years ago.  With the advent of the fur trade and a visit by Samuel de Champlain in 1615\, the Narrows became a key site of cultural and capital exchange and led to the eventual formation of Orillia as a European settlement in 1840.  Drawing on narratives and word play based on animals hunted\, trapped\, and exchanged\, Unfurled utilizes objects and materials held within OMAH’s historical collection\, as well as objects created by Price\, to discuss how the thriving abundance of animals led to the material wealth of their prime predators\, human beings. \n \n \n \n \n \n
