    One Story

    • 1994
    • Hope Peterson, Erika MacPherson

    One Story was originally produced as part of the Community Play “Travois” in 1994. It is a look into the various complicated and overlapping stories that inform the current urban and traditional culture of the First Nations peoples. The questionable politics that dictate Status and the paternalism of Treaty Days are juxtaposed with the pow wow, the voice of graffiti and the street.

    One Story

    Surface Damage

    • 1992
    • Hope Peterson

    A variety of scars on women’s bodies are labeled either “surgical”, “self-inflicted” or “other”. The categories break down and overlap as the tape progresses, the image interrupted from time to time by scenes of a scarification.

    Armour For Living

    • 1987
    • Hope Peterson

    The Common Handbag: it contains the only survival equipment carried by many women. Is it a useless burden, or a vital accessory? This short story plunges into the woman’s “tool box”.
