Presenters:
Chris Rempel (Kalapuya, Chinook, Klamath) is a Cultural Resources Specialist for the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde.
Greg Archuleta is a member of and the Cultural Policy Analyst for the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde. His families are Willamette Tumwater, Clackamas, Santiam Kalapuya and Shasta/Takelma.
Artist Tammie Dupuis's work is grounded in her mixed-heritage identity and the intercultural experiences that have shaped her life. Her father was a member of the Bitterroot Salish and Q’lispe tribes of Montana, and her maternal grandparents were white settlers who arrived on the reservation in the early 1920s. This dual lineage informs every aspect of her practice. She creates from the space between these histories, examining how they intersect, conflict, and coexist.
