As part of her project ‘(official denial) trade value in progress’, Decter invited participants to engage with Prime Minister Harper’s 2009 statement addressing the G20, “We also have no history of colonialism.” The “sewing action” involved an informal time of dialogue and sewing in response to that statement.

This event was a co-presentation of the Manitoba Craft Council and the Art Gallery of Southwestern Manitoba.
