Shelley Niro was been working tirelessly as a painter, photographer, and filmmaker for more than three decades, and she’s only now receiving wide recognition for her visionary work. After receiving a Governor General’s Award and the prestigious Scotiabank Photography Award within six months in 2017, Shelley’s work, which challenges stereotypical representations of Indigenous women in Canadian culture, is now the subject of a career-spanning book by the legendary German publisher, Steidl. Host Sean O’Neill meets with Shelley at home in Brantford, Ontario before travelling with her to Göttingen, Germany, where Shelley works around the clock with the fastidious publisher Gerhard Steidl to put her book to press.
