Honoring the incredible work of artist Scott Strong Hawk Foster, whose project “Ways of My Ancestors – Imagery: Lighting the Path to Awareness” brings contemporary Indigenous voices to the forefront. His vision and dedication created a space for reflection, visibility, and celebration of culture that continues to thrive today.
I am proud to have been part of documenting this important work. I am 25% Maliseet from Maine and my grandfather was 100%, and being involved in this project was deeply personal. It is about remembrance, resilience, and honoring the generations who came before us.
The installation is on view at Quincy Market through January 14, featuring ten large-scale, two-sided portraits at the east and west entrances, reaching tens of thousands of visitors each day. The opening reception brought together artists, performers, leaders, and community members, including Native American singers and drummers Strong Eagle Daly, Ella Nathanael Alkiewicz, and Bruce Star Curliss, along with remarks from Jim Peters of the Massachusetts Commission on Indian Affairs and Scott himself.

I am deeply grateful to Luke Magnuson for filming when I was not able to be behind the camera myself. His support and professionalism were essential in capturing this project with the care it deserves.
This work was produced through AC Production, where we transform life into visual art through storytelling that is purposeful, honest, and collaborative. Every project is approached with integrity, grit, and respect for the people, places, and stories involved.
