Elizabeth Day

2008 Bush Artist Fellowship
Minnesota

Career Field: Media Arts
Secondary Field: Video

Elizabeth Day (Minneapolis, Minn.) is Ojibwe and an emerging director. Born on the Leech Lake Reservation and raised in the Twin Cities area, Day blends her Native American heritage with her urban upbringing to create films that employ traditional Ojibwe-style storytelling while using contemporary filmmaking techniques. Through the medium of film she examines a broad swath of Native history. Her work often explores the tension between traditional Native teachings and the life of a modern, urban Indian. A primary motivation for Day is recording and capturing the quickly fading pastimes of Ojibwe culture, an important and integral piece of Minnesota’s history.
