Art Windsor-Essex launches exhibit looking at ecological concerns
Art Windsor-Essex launched a new exhibit on Thursday, one that analyzes ecological concerns shared by humans and animals in the ecosystem.
The exhibit, titled Ndishnikaaz / Nugwa'am / My name is, is by Mary Anne Barkhouse.
'There are stories in this exhibition about what we keep and what we should return,' said Emily McKibbon, head of exhibitions and collection.
'Stories that offer paths towards more ethical ways of being. But Barkhouse asks that before hearing these stories, we begin by naming ourselves to the storyteller: Ndishnikaaz / Nugwa'am / My name is.'
The stories in the exhibition are told through the eyes, ears, and whiskers of various species. Viewers are asked to explore the histories and consider what the future could bring.
More details about the exhibit are available here.

Article content Article content Article content American entertainment outlet Deadline reported last Tuesday that TIFF organizers had pulled the film about Hamas's attack in 2023 because it failed to meet the 'legal clearance of all footage.'

Article content The festival's decision to pull the film caused backlash among many Toronto politicians and many within the broader entertainment industry. Article content I have learned that TIFF has reversed its decision and will screen 'The Road Between Us: The Ultimate Rescue'. This is the right call. But this never should have happened – and it shouldn't have taken a public outcry to reverse this mistake. TIFF owes Barry Avrich a public… — Brad Bradford✌️ (@BradMBradford) August 14, 2025
