Summary
"Tired of reading negative and disparaging remarks directed at Indigenous people in Winnipeg in the press and on social media, artist KC Adams created a photo series that presented another perspective. Called "Perception," it confronted common stereotypes of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people to illustrate a more contemporary, truthful story.
