Green Hair Girl
by Natasha Redwood-Scribe

About the Show:
“This collection of work is showcasing my Ojibwe heritage and identity using the Ojibwe style known as Woodland Art, while also exploring a more illustrative and narrative approach in other mediums such as relief printmaking. One of the central figures in this collection is Green Hair Girl, a character that emerged during a time when I was just beginning to explore my identity and the Woodland Art Style – inspired by artists such as Jim Oskineegish and Norval Morrisseau. Green Hair Girl began as a self-portrait but gradually evolved into a recurring figure within the stories I tell through my art. These pieces offer a more feminine perspective within a style that’s historically been interpreted through a more masculine lens. A theme of self-discovery, that I hope that viewers can connect to and find something that resonates, and reflects their own experiences.”

masculine interpretations. Central to her practice is Green Hair Girl, a recurring figure that
introduces a narrative storytelling element to her pieces.

Her work has since been exhibited at Art Vancouver in 2022 and 2023, featured at the Hyatt Hotel Vancouver, and displayed at YVR Airport.
