This blog is a platform for art and writing dealing with queerness and other modes of identity which have been historically oppressed. It is also a demomstration of how making art and writing can be used as a tool for self understanding and healing in the face of the precarious lives that we live.

Nadia Myre, Indian Act
Indian Act speaks of the realities of colonization - the effects of contact, and its often-broken and untranslated contracts. The piece consists of all 56 pages of the Canadian Federal Government’s Indian Act mounted on stroud cloth and sewn over with red and white glass beads. Each word is replaced with white beads sewn into the document; the red beads replace the negative space.
