All That You See Is(n't) Yours

All That You See Is(n't) Yours

Montanari and Snyder developed a proposal to showcase their research into place with new works that acted as a visual exploration of Providence’s colonial history, examined from both the Indigenous and colonial viewpoints. New artworks combined Ms. Snyder’s extensive experience as a multimedia public artist and Ms. Montanari’s work in the visual arts and on language revitalization (the study and teaching of the Narragansett language with the goal of bringing fluency to the Indigenous community). The pair used archival material from Providence City Archives as well as support from the Tomaquag Museum (https://www.tomaquagmuseum.org/).
Montanari and Snyder exhibited these new works on the third floor of City Hall from January 2020 – Summer 2020. The work appears alongside a display of the 1637 Town Charter between Roger Williams and the Narragansett Tribe.
