STTLMNT is an Indigenous artist strategy utilizing occupation (digital and physical) to disseminate post-colonial artworks and create our own living archive.

Conceived by artist Cannupa Hanska Luger, STTLMNT asserts an ethos of Indigenization as well as the strategy of occupation. By reclaiming digital and physical space as Indigenous people, we not only find ways to disseminate our post-colonial art works but we stake a radical, visionary claim on the future.

STTLMNT will continue to occupy space both digital and physical for years to come, inviting new artists into collaboration as the work expands globally, asserting an Indigenous world view as expressed through a living archive.

You are invited in to experience this digital occupation, and as you do please practice respect and understanding. This is our work, our world vision, our heart, our future dreaming, our technology, our stories, our complexity, our resilience, our pain, our beauty, our art and our community. Together we hope to learn deeper and question further, ultimately dismantling the amnesia wrought by Colonialism.
