It does not matter what continually changes, our understanding remains certain

Shé:kon, sgę́:nǫˀ, 

We Remain Certain is curated by a group of Haudenosaunee artists, community members, and academics. This collaborative work is a contemporary telling of our traditional narratives, how we see the world, and our lives at the Grand River Territory. This exhibit offers a glimpse into the unique worldview of the Haudenosaunee and how it has been maintained in this region for over a thousand years.

We are upholding our responsibilities and celebrating our existence in the 21st century through the perpetuation of ways of knowing that have been passed down to us from our ancestors. We have remained certain of who we are despite having experienced centuries of colonial violence.  We have resisted. We have survived.  We do this in order to ensure the wellbeing of future generations of Haudenosaunee, or "the coming faces.

Artists: Dakota Brant, Kaya Hill, Arnold Jacobs, Ken Maracle, Bead the Tract Artist Collective
