Spiritual Changes Through Indigenous Teachings (Future)

This painting is an example of the modern exchange of Indigenous knowledge as well as the pride that Indigenous people have in their culture. Teke Dan believes that through the revival of traditional Indigenous knowledge, there is hope that Indigenous peoples will have the tools to move forward while preserving their cultural identity in this contemporary society.

Spiritual Changes Through Indigenous Teachings features many themes and images that are ubiquitous throughout modern times. The painting's central theme is the modern exchange of Indigenous knowledge as we all move towards the future. It shows images of storytelling, a father teaching his son to be a Chicken Dancer, wild horses showing that the Blood Tribe (Kainai) are horse people, Chief Mountain, and the image of Chief Crowfoot. Teke Dan's hope is that this painting will give the people of Calgary and the visitors of it, an idea of the overall beauty that Indigenous cultures and the land of the Blood Tribe hold.
