Albert Betty
Cultural Background: Cree
Betty Albert aka Wabimeguil belongs to the Chapleau Cree First Nation in Northern Ontario. She began her career in 1991. As a professional artist she concentrated her art in representing native women and spirituality. Her artwork has a special connection to the land and culture of the James Bay Cree. Both have served as the backdrop against which she has spent over thirty years evolving and developing her own distinct style of Indigenous artwork.
Through her art Betty attempts to represent the strength and beauty of the feminine when it its grounded in the Great Spirit, womenโs sacred dignified, and self-defining spiritual beings. She is most productive in solitude, alone with her tools. Her artwork gives expression to the peace that she experiences when she enters this sacred space of creation. While she has had success throughout North America and beyond, her artwork has been especially well received by her people, the James Bay Cree. She often shares that if her artwork is beautiful, it is only because she has spent her life trying to capture and reflect the beauty of the James Bay Cree people, the beauty of their culture and the beauty of the land. She divides her time between the province of Ontario and Manitoba where she spends time with her sons, their partners, her grandchildren and her ceremonial family.

Betty Albert, alias Wabimeguil, appartient ร la Premiรจre Nation crie de Chapleau, dans le nord de l’Ontario. Elle a commencรฉ sa carriรจre en 1991. En tant qu’artiste professionnelle, elle a concentrรฉ son art sur la reprรฉsentation des femmes autochtones et de la spiritualitรฉ. Ses ลuvres ont un lien particulier avec la terre et la culture des Cris de la Baie-James. Ces deux รฉlรฉments ont servi de toile de fond ร la dรฉmarche de Betty, qui รฉvolue depuis plus de trente ans et a dรฉveloppรฉ son propre style d’art autochtone.
Par son art, Betty tente de reprรฉsenter la force et la beautรฉ du fรฉminin lorsqu’il est ancrรฉ dans le Grand Esprit, la dignitรฉ sacrรฉe des femmes, et les รชtres spirituels qui se dรฉfinissent eux-mรชmes. C’est dans la solitude, seule avec ses outils, qu’elle est la plus productive. Ses ลuvres d’art expriment la paix qu’elle ressent lorsqu’elle pรฉnรจtre dans cet espace sacrรฉ de crรฉation. Ses ลuvres ont eu du succรจs dans toute l’Amรฉrique du Nord et mรชme au-delร de ses frontiรจres, mais elles ont รฉtรฉ particuliรจrement apprรฉciรฉes par son peuple, les Cris de la Baie-James. Elle se plaรฎt ร dire que si ses ลuvres sont belles, c’est parce qu’elle a passรฉ sa vie ร essayer de capturer et de reflรฉter la beautรฉ du peuple cri de la Baie-James, celle de sa culture et de sa rรฉgion. Elle partage son temps entre l’Ontario et le Manitoba, oรน se trouvent ses fils, leurs partenaires, ses petits-enfants et sa famille cรฉrรฉmonielle.
