miina kawapamitin 

Presented at Pi*llOry part four, July 26, 2020.
miina kawapamitin (until we meet again, in Michif) is an act of labor, love, and embodiment in the form of ongoing research, beading, piercing, naming. It is a hopeful gesture towards healing for those Indigenous to Turtle Island who have been taken from us in so-called Canada by the violence of policing. I remove the literal and metaphoric wound of their loss from my body, resting the beaded piece with sacred medicines and eventually washing the blood of the wounds off of my body.
