\u00ab\u00a0One should never forget what our elders have taught us. We must continue to apply this knowledge and succeed in defining ourselves through creation.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In 1988, Roger joined the theatre company Ondinnok in Le Porteur des peines du monde<\/em>. His d\u00e9buts in professional theatre coincided in time with vocal and drum performances in various venues throughout Qu\u00e9bec and Europe. These experiences opened his eyes to a new world of possibilities, and Roger dove right in. Ondinnok became the starting point of a new circle of acquaintances and friends that has never stopped widening, like ripples from a stone thrown in the water. His interpretation of Gabriel Commanda in Val-d\u2019Or vous raconte son histoire<\/em> left no one indifferent; he will resume his role for a third consecutive year in 2020.<\/p>\n

\n

\u00ab\u00a0Even when I don\u2019t know where I\u2019m going, I always dive in. Whatever the project. No one should fear the unknown. Whether or not we succeed, the experience is always rewarding. I rely on my values as an Anishinaabe and transmitter of knowledge. \u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

According to Wylde, it is essential to know one\u2019s identity and origins to be able to be oneself. The know-how-to-be is the living core of any culture and the caretaker of authenticity. His art practice is aligned and consistent with this philosophy. In his opinion, art opens the door to culture and its universe of knowledge, traditions and values. This is how art builds bridges between people and cultures, between the self and one\u2019s heritage.<\/p>\n

His children are a great source of inspiration to Wylde. When only a kid, applying certain aspects of his culture was considered a taboo in his community. He would like to contribute to making it a source of pride and self-confidence for the younger generation. Just as his friend Denis Kistabish, who brought drum-playing back in his life, Wylde revives traditional Anishinaabe knowledge to best transmit it to the younger generation. He works leather and wood and makes drums and clothes. He has conducted several workshops intended for young people and given drum-making and tanning courses.<\/p>\n

\n

\u00ab\u00a0I always say that once you master how to make clothes and work leather, you know your history. People have worked leather for thousands of years. I consider myself very lucky to have learned all that from my parents and elders.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>
