Mistatim – I Honour You

The relationship between man and the horse changed the lives of the Plains First Nations people. The change of mode of transportation, from dog, to horse, increased mobility and brought about greater trade opportunities, and a shift in economic strength. People traveled further, faster, communicated more, shared more, and they hunted more, which created greater material wealth.

Mistatim- I Honour You, continues honouring tradition and sets forth examples of this highly held reverence for the horse, through historical and contemporary artistic expression of the Plains First Nation and Metis Peoples.
