{"id":37,"count":9,"description":"Rooted in painting and drawing, but also pulling from performance, photography, sculpture, and installation, Joseph Tisiga\u2019s assembled scenes are rich in detail and scope, often showing stories of figures in fantastical settings nuanced with humour and obscurity. A member of the Kaska Dena Nation, his work reflects on notions of identity and what contributes to this construct\u2014community, nationality, family, history, place, and both real and imagined memories. Tisiga\u2019s works examine cultural and social inheritance, the mundane, the metaphysical and the mythological, often all at once and on the same surface. This conflation of interests and perspectives plays itself out in the artist\u2019s narratives, which are distinctly non-linear, cross-cultural and supernatural.\r\n\r\nJoseph Tisiga (b. 1984, Edmonton, Canada), lives and works in Montreal, Canada. Solo exhibitions have been presented at the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019art de Joliette, the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum (East Lansing), the Audain Art Museum (Whistler), and Bradley Ertaskiran (Montreal). Notable group exhibitions have been staged at the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa), Esker Foundation (Calgary), Blackwood Gallery (Toronto), the Winnipeg Art Gallery, MASS MoCA (North Adams), the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts (Santa Fe), West Vancouver Museum, and the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019art contemporain de Montr\u00e9al. Tisiga\u2019s work is collected by the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa), the Mus\u00e9e national des beaux-arts du Qu\u00e9bec, the Forge Project (New York), the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, and the Audain Art Museum (Whistler), among others. Tisiga is the recipient of The Yukon Prize for Visual Arts (2021), the Sobey Art Award (2020), and the REVEAL Indigenous Art Award (2017).","link":"https:\/\/bradleyertaskiran.com\/en\/artists\/joseph-tisiga-en\/","name":"Joseph Tisiga","slug":"joseph-tisiga-en","taxonomy":"artists","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Joseph Tisiga: Work, Biography &amp; Press - Bradley Ertaskiran<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Bradley Ertaskiran represents the work of Joseph Tisiga, a Montreal-based artist.
