He hopes that when people view his artwork, they not only notice the beauty he captures in the flora and fauna of his surroundings, but also understand that they are glimpsing his essence as a Kanien\u2019keh\u00e1:ka person. In today\u2019s fast-paced world, he believes we often overlook the meaningful connection that nature offers. He suggests that by appreciating the magnificence of trees, soil, and waters, we can learn valuable teachings from them.<\/p>\n<p>Aaron Rice is a multidisciplinary artist of Kanien&#8217;keha:ka and Scottish ancestry. His work combines the mediums of printmaking, video projection, textiles, installation and sculpture. He holds a BFA (2025) in visual arts from Emily Carr University of Art and Design.<\/p>\n<p>Galerie She:kon, which means \u201chello\u201d in Kanien\u2019k\u00e9h\u00e0, focuses on showcasing solo exhibitions by up-and-coming Indigenous artists and curators.
