Grandmothers working with our people, the land, our ceremonies and medicines gathered on Six Nations of the Grand River territory, and spent two days discussing their work, what they are spiritually called to do, and what they need to help them do the work. Our ceremonial people need helpers, safe spaces, and support from their communities to continue the important work they do. Nyá:wen for allowing me to listen. 🤍

@protectthetract has a display of the We Remain Certain exhibition for display at the Great Law of Peace Recital all this week at Soursprings Longhouse. My graphic recording of a (VERY CONDENSED) 400 year history for Grand River territory and the Haudenosaunee is on display.

This is the 3rd version of a local history I’ve recorded. One of these days I’ll get to that final version!

Grateful this past month to be brought in to graphic record three team member sessions of the newly renamed Six Nations Department of Wellbeing. With over 400 staff, they are the largest department under Six Nations elected council. The challenge with this recording was to capture 6 entire days of content onto one paper! ✨✍🏾✨

My lower back hurts. I’m in need of a shower. Slight acid reflux from the copious amounts of coffee. The laundry basket is overflowing and I haven’t answered emails in 3 days, but my leggings are done ✅

✨ Last week I spent 3 days graphic recording in Rama First Nation for researchers and frontline workers supporting Indigenous peoples living with Dementia. The available research on its effects in our communities is extremely limited, but the room had a plethora of expertise to share. My eyes were opened to the need for support for caregivers, who sacrifice so much to support their loved one in their transition. ❤️ #TheGraphicMohawk #GraphicRecording #Dementia #dementiaawareness

“We Remain Certain” Exhibition 2024 - I was honoured to be invited to create a 16 foot graphic recording that shares 400 years of Grand River history; contextualizing our past and it’s continued impact on our Six Nations people. To understand our past is everything if we wish to move forward in a way that is unified, a little kinder, a little more patient, and a little more love filled. Nyá:wen to @protectthetract for inviting me to be part of the We Remain Certain exhibition at the McMaster University Museum of Art. @mcmasteru @macmuseum My work, along with that of other Six Nations Artists, will be on Display until March 22, 2024.

“We Remain Certain shows the enduring relationship between Haudenosaunee and their home in Grand River Territory. A group exhibition curated by a collective of Haudenosaunee artists, these contemporary works explore Haudenosaunee land tenure and the complex history, treaty agreements, and displacements along the Grand.”
