Indian Time: 2 satellites exhibitions in Quebec

Elena Perlino carried out Indian Time during three visits to the Québec-Labrador border. Her photo series and her film run through the Innu and Naskapi communities, between Natashquan, Mani-Utenam, Matimekosh-Lac-John, Kawawachikamach and Sheshatshiu. She traveled through these spaces and these singular times – marked by ritual, by the passing of traditions, and by day-to-day life – so that we may enter into “nordicity,” and come as close as possible to those who inhabit it.

The project was undertaken in the context of Rencontres internationales de la photographie en Gaspésie in 2017 with the support of the Istituto Italiano di Cultura di Montreal, and Air Inuit. It was exhibited as part of the 9th edition of Rencontres during the summer of 2018 in the Gaspé
