Justina Barnicke Gallery, Hart House, University of Toronto. Until August 19, 2014. Admission free. This exhibition consists of five videos, four sculptures and four photographic works. It's worth taking the time to watch the videos. They record different performances Belmore has enacted. I liked "X, Performance", from the exhibition Mapping Resistances, photographed by Elizabeth Thippawong. It made me feel uneasy because I wondered if this indigenous woman doing something unusual outside a store would provoke a hostile reaction from onlookers. Belmore creates strong symbols and powerful imagery.
