Desde Canada, recibimos el trabajo de los estudiantes del grupo de Winnipeg a cargo del prof. Frank Reimer a continuación mostramosa algunos de ellos y la nota que Frank nos envío

It was an enjoyable project, and there were some good discussions generated from working through the process of looking at our own cultural identity, and how others might see us. I hope you find the results interesting.

All the best.

Frank

A piece commenting on the growing problems with the pollution of water sources in
and around Canada & North America. Canada has more water through lakes, streams
and oceans than anywhere else in the world. This will not stop until some major
changes are made.

Title: Culture nourishment, an open can. My concept was to explain Canada as many cultures. I thought this could be easily understood by our imported foods and a common kitchen tool that is used in all cultures.

The Headdress – For me the Native American Headdress is a very unique representation of my culture. It captures the artistic, spiritual, and musical qualities. I thought a brightly colored headdress, made up of ink, paint, and photography would encapsulate the very essence of what defines the culture identity that makes me unique.
