MANITOWANING — An art exhibition featuring Leland Bell’s depiction of healthy aging teachings through the perspectives of Anishinabe culture was held on June 26 at the Debajehmujig Theatre Group in Manitowaning. Hosted by the Memory Keepers Medical Discovery Team and ICARE Community Advisory Council on Dementia Research, the art exhibition featured copies on canvas of Bell’s original paintings of seven traditional Knowledge Keepers from the Mnidoo Mnising (Manitoulin Island) area, who had participated in the Access to Culturally Safe and Relevant Dementia Care for Diverse Indigenous People in Canada project. The original paintings had already been gifted back to the Knowledge Keepers.
“I really enjoyed the opening and I really enjoyed visiting with the people,” Bell says. “I got to visit with the people that I did renditions of their thoughts and ideas.”
Bell says he created the paintings after reviewing information about and videos featuring the Knowledge Keepers, who had shared their insights on what healthy aging means in Anishinabe culture, the values, ways of knowing and living, and the activities practiced by Anishinabe people to keep their minds healthy through aging.
