Slow Scrape

Tanya Lukin Linklater’s performances, works for camera, installations, and writings centre Indigenous peoples’ lived experiences, (home)lands, and structures of sustenance. Her performances in relation to objects in exhibition, scores, and Ancestral belongings generate what she has come to call felt structures. Her work has been shown at the Aichi Triennale, Art Gallery of Ontario, Chicago Architecture Biennial, New Museum Triennial, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Toronto Biennial of Art, and elsewhere. In 2021 she received the Herb Alpert Award in the Arts. Her Alutiiq/Sugpiaq homelands are in the Kodiak Island archipelago in southwestern Alaska.
