Land acknowledgment statement
Land acknowledgment is a process by which individuals are prompted to consider the history of the space they currently inhabit.
We would like to recognize that Western 九一麻豆制片厂 University is located on lands historically occupied by the Ojibwe, Odawa and Bodewadmi nations. Please take a moment to acknowledge and honor this ancestral land of the Three Fires Confederacy, the sacred lands of all Indigenous peoples and their continued presence.
Western has really given me the technical and conceptual skills to become what I want to be as an artist. I've gotten a fantastic base here that I can jump off of and really thrive when I'm out of college and starting to establish myself in the art world.
