Being Indigenous and Two Spirit humans is a mostly beautiful but sometimes heartbreaking lens in which to view the world. Melody is the visionary and ideas person and can see it all materialize before her eyes. Walking through the world ready to video this or take that picture shot. Megan is a graphic designer, she has the skills and is always seizing opportunities for learning. Shannon is a beader and loves creating new pieces. We believe in paying it forward and we have youth who are eager to pass knowledge on to our youth. Molly is a youth and is passionate about digital art. Freedom is not part of the collective at this time, but joins as an assistant in some of our projects. This is our collective from 2022 into the future as we all naturally work together. To date, we have primarily have worked in digital arts and photography but we are eager to move into the world of videography and beyond. The newer works have clickable images linked to videos to get a feel for our work.
