Queerkwe

Aanii! I am an anishinaabe artist trying to create space and representation for two spirit and LGBTQ Indigenous folks through my beadwork. There is a lot of trauma that comes with being a queer native person, but there is also so much beauty. These pieces remind us of that beauty, strength, and resilience that has kept our people going. In a sense, the project is a decolonization effort aiming to start conversations about the history of Two Spirit peoples in our communities and create a stronger community for LGBTQ And Two Spirit Indigenous folks.
