Jaime Black-Morsette discusses the REDress Project, an art installation to seek justice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.

Join us for a conversation with Jaime Black-Morsette, a Métis visual artist, living and working on their ancestral homeland in the Red River valley of Manitoba, Canada. Black-Morsette is the founder of The REDress Project, an installation art project to seek justice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous People. Their art practice engages in themes of memory, identity, place and resistance and is grounded in an understanding of the body and the land as sources of cultural and spiritual knowledge.
