Watch me become Hunter Down, a drag king performer. I will be performing this July in Cornwall, Ontario Canada.

What are some topics that could strike up a convo or subjects we need to discuss as a community?

Can you spot the bingo cards? I use them in my paintings! Theme is “Healing” for all of us but it’s however Art makes you feel that’s important. I made this one keeping in mind the atrocities survivors or resident schools faced. Painting available, Link in Bio.

📆👉🏽 📸 Save the date! Last year I took 2nd place in my decision with “Lucky Corn” and sold it that day! Truly blessed. Lesson I learned that day, stick with your authentic style. I didn’t think I would win honestly because of my style but the feedback was everyone loved how I incorporated bingo cards into the painting. It gave them a nostalgic vibe. Memories of playing with grandparents, aunties and uncles interlaced in the collage and paint. 😊 #twospirit #mohawktribe #akwesasne #akwesasneartist #akwesasneartshow #kaniekehaka #haudenosaunee #indigenousartists #juriedartshow (at St. Regis Mohawk Reservation) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpckoukOxaN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“The Tennessee House of Representatives has passed a bill criminalizing public drag performances in the presence of minors as a wave of legislation targeting LGBTQ people, spaces, and culture sweeps the country.” 🤦🏽‍♂️ As Hunter Down, I first stepped out on stage in 2010 for an amateur drag competition in Charlotte, NC. And since then I have found my confidence as a person and performer. I explored many dynamics of my identity, sexuality and gender, and most of all I found love and acceptance 💕so I made a decision… see you at Cornwall Pride 2023 everyone. Follow for details. #twospirit #drag #dragking #dragperformer #lgbtq #cornwallontario #ottawaontario #gaypride #pridemonth2023 #pride2023 #dragshow https://www.instagram.com/p/CpRQw6PrhLv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The term MMIW is an epidemic across the USA and Canada. To break it down further, the term MMIWG2S is a movement that advocates for the end of violence against Missing and Murdered Indigenous women, girls, trans women, and two-spirits. * My goal was to create an image that would shed awareness and attention to the high rates of disappearances and murders not covered by mainstream media or outside the borders of Indigenous communities. * I designed this digital portrait of “Her” to address the issues of Indigenous, Native American, and Native Hawaiian MMIWG2S who also are being assaulted and trafficked with no repercussions on the assaulters. The impact of colonization and trauma on these women needs to be addressed and even having that conversation is the right step toward reconciliation and healing. * #mmiw #twospirit #mmiwg2s #mmiwawareness #indigenous #nativeamerican #stoodis #rezlife #indigenousart #illuminative #ndn https://www.instagram.com/p/CpKiSSqrug7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
