To stand in solidarity with #blacklivesmatter I cr

To stand in solidarity with #blacklivesmatter I created this graphic that anyone is welcome to use to show their solidarity too. There are two versions available.

It's in the Dakota language and translates to Black Lives Matter. Minneapolis is Dakota territory and we stand with BLM. (Thanks to @huhamaza for his help with the language)

There's a lot of chaos going on in real life right

There's a lot of chaos going on in real life right now (Minneapolis and St Paul riots), but still like to share that I was recently interviewed by the Washington Post and created an illustration for them.

I'm glad to have been to talk about the tightknit Native community of the twin cities (that's coming together even tighter these past few days due to the riots): I talk about what the community is doing to help elders through COVID-19, what we can learn from them and what it's like as a Native artist working in these times.

The print version will be out in a few days but you can read the online version in my bio. #protectourelders

Share with Dakota folks in SW MN: For the pilot D

Share with Dakota folks in SW MN:

For the pilot Dakota CAIR program, two Dakota artists based in the 18-county Southwestern Mnisota region, Pezihutazizi Oyate (Upper Sioux Community) and / or Cansa’yapi (Lower Sioux Indian Community) will be selected and supported in sharing their work in digital forums and social distance formats.

The two selected CAIRs will work for two weeks “at-home” to utilize their artistic practice to design and implement a creative project that will address a need identified by their local community.

The two selected artists will receive support and funding — a stipend of $1000 ($500 per week) and a project budget of $400 — to work with their local community from their place of residence for two weeks (June 19th-July 3rd).

Here's a new coloring sheet to celebrate Native A

Here's a new coloring sheet to celebrate Native American Month in Minnesota. I teamed up with @tufawon (lyrics from his song Sagepatch Kid) and the Hennepin County Library to create a poster that captures the rebirth of Spring through Dakota florals (Tufawon and I are both Spirit Lake Dakota)

There's a link in my bio to download the poster and hear Tufawon's music via MN Spin, so get to it~

Here is an animation "We Come From The Stars" that I made for We Are Water MN

It is narrated by Dakota Astronomer Jim Rock, who discusses the sacred connections between the Star Nations above us and Wakan Tipi cave/ Burial Mounds at Indian Mounds Regional Park

He has a lot of good knowledge to share, I highly recommend giving it a watch, I put the link in my bio to the full video

When @hennepintheatretrust asked if I wanted to be

When @hennepintheatretrust asked if I wanted to be included as part of their #ArtConnectsUs billboard campaign, I got excited about being able to share positivity through art. 11 artists created 10 designs that will be shown all over the Twin Cities metro area, starting today and going to May 31.

I thought it would be cool to see Dakota in large format: Čhaŋtéwašte describes a state of happiness, when one's heart is good. All the kind acts and changes in behaviors in these though times are happening because folks have found the kindness of their hearts to care for our communities.

If you do leave your home, keep an eye out for our work. Remember the essential workers who are risking themselves to keep things moving. And check out HTT's link in their bio to get more information. #dakotafloral #dakotamakoche
