This catalogue accompanies the exhibition La Rábina, Soul of Conquest: An Anishinaabe Encounter, an immersive installation of Bonnie Devine's multimedia artwork along with a video co-created with David DeLeary. For this exhibition, Devine conducted extensive research on European colonization of the America's. Examining Indigenous and non-Indigenous primary resources, Devine investigates Columbus' landing with the aim to attend to the history of violence often omitted by European mythology.
