Indigenous Futurism opens the Glitch Western Art exhibition, leading us to futures created by Oji Cree Anishinaabekwe artist NFTipi. If you are wondering ‘what is Indigenous Futurism?’ then spend time with NFTipi’s art. Consider how she combines the most recent technologies of Digital Art, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Machine Learning (ML) with science fictional inspirations, Indigenous knowledge, and the facts of her traditional tribal influences. Working from her lived experiences in the present she envisions the futures. Her works in this exhibition, ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐤ ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐤ ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐤ (888), ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐓᒥᑕᓇᐤ ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐓᓵᑊ ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐤ (eighty eight-eight), and ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐓᒥᑕᓇᐤ ᐊᔨᓈᓀᐓᓵᑊ ᓀᓱ (eighty eight- two) use her signature style in AI Art to glitch the Western further by locating her Northern Indigenous tipi-fi in Far Eastern settings. As she says of this series, which was also featured in the THAI NFT Festival in Seoul, South Korea: “tipi travels to futurist asia to see friends!”
