Terre Chartrand
Terre Chartrand, a non-status Algonquin artist, brings a diverse background in literature, theatre, visual arts, photography, technology, and science. As the founder and artistic director of various collectives and projects, Terre initiated Pins and Needles Fabric Company, an inter-arts collective, founded the urban Indigenous youth arts collective Endaayaang – Our Home, and co-founded O:se Kenhionhata:tie #LandBackCamp, a culture and Land Back camp for Two-Spirit youth. Current projects highlight principled engagement in identity and Indigeneity, encompassing collective embroidery of medicinal plants, curating Emerging from the Broken Forest for Indigenous artists, and producing Estrange(ment), a historic play challenging romanticized narratives of the fur trade era and the Indian Act (2022-2023).
