Opplysninger | "M: Stories of Women is a series of large scale photographs that incorporate elements of myth and portraiture to contest the prevailing narratives that define First Nations existence. The letter M in the title references the myriad characterizations of First Nations women. It could be taken to reference earlier title and incarnation of the work (Monster) or it could reference other traits or roles such as maternal or mother. The amibiguity of the title affords Niro the ability to explore several issues in and outside the context of gender. The incorporation of overlapping elements with found imagery, landscape photography and portraiture allows for complex presentations of each of the series' subjects. - Sally Frater"--Taken from publisher website.
