About we are made of stardust

Curated by Rhéanne Chartrand

Presented at the McMaster Museum of Art from August 16 – December 2, we are made of stardust explores our relationship with the cosmos. Rooted in Indigenous cosmologies and astronomy, the artworks included in this exhibition visually express how Indigenous peoples make sense of their place in the universe through relating to and reflecting on the sun, the moon, the stars, and all celestial beings in the night sky.
