"Theme #25 - "Life Is Going To Be Wow-Wow-Whee For My Shadow And Me"
Title: Lyrics from "Me and My Shadow" written by Dave Dreyer, Al Jolson, Billy Rose

I've dragged my shadow all my life
Faithfully behind. Neither made a sound.
Now, I'm my own true friend - MY shadow leads!
Discoveries and adventures abound.
Last week, my shadow guided me to the Montréal First Peoples Festival, "Présence Autochtone" at Place des Festivals. Another festival in Montréal! The evening was balmy as the sun was setting and Kimberley, Lorelei and I wandered about as each of our shadows ushered us around. Another adventure today!
"The turtle represents the sea world and her shell the earth’s crust, which she carries on her back."
This is just a small sample of what was to be seen at Place des Festivals, which was transformed by Michel Marsolais. "He has permeated it with the cosmic vision of the First Peoples and drawn upon the inspiration of contemporary Indigenous artists who convey the rich spiritual and artistic heritage of the land in their own style. Anishnabe artist Caroline Monnet ( carolinemonnet.ca ) of the AM collective designed the striking and luminous visual identity for the site; Athanore assisted her in her multimedia creation."
