Heroes & Villains 11-19, Installed at the Museum of Contemporary Native Art in Santa Fe, New Mexico. · · · It's always a huge honor to be asked to contribute to an exhibition. Indigenous Futurisms: Transcending Past/Present/Future is near and dear to my heart not just because of the subject matter but also because I've been a Science Fiction/Space Opera fan for my whole life. Pilamaya Chelsea, Manuela & Susan for an excellent exhibition, and to all the museum staff & hardworking individuals who helped to bring this to life! And big ups to all the friends & fam who attended the opening. · · · · #hokaskenandore #IndigenousFuturisms #TranscendingPastPresentFuture #MoCNA #ContemporaryNativeArt #ContemporaryIndigenousArt #MuseumofContemporaryNativeArt (at IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8mNJE3FYJe/?igshid=565g1jar7ppj

The Child 2019 Ink on Paper - - - This creature has become quite the pop culture sensation, and aside from its ridiculous cuteness it's become celebrated in Native artwork, which is fitting seeing as how the last episode of The Mandalorian is a stellar example of Indigenous Futurism. The director of the season finale is Taiki Waititi, and credit should also go towards his work on Thor: Ragnarok, which is filled with references to Indigenous/Native People of Australia & New Zealand. In fact I would posit that Thor: Ragnarok is the first major mainstream film featuring Indigenous Futurism as a visible element of the film. While the Marvel Cinematic Universe is light years away from A Galaxy Far, Far Away, Mr. Waititi has left an Indigenous Futurist thumbprint on Star Wars. While there are no overt Indigenous references to observe, Taiki Waititi has pulled double duty as episode director as well as the voice for the assassin-turned-nurse droid IG-11, which in turn becomes the caretaker & protector of the Force weilding Child. And while a cornerstone of Indigenous Futurism(s) is the setting up of the presence of Indigenous people in the future, Mr. Waititi has made room for future Indigenous writers, filmmakers and directors to contribute to the rich tapestry of the Star Wars universe. This is the way. - - - - #IndigenousFuturisms #IndigenousFuturism #TheMandalorian #TaikaWaititi #TheChild #BabyYoda #StarWars #Portrait #InkDrawing #hokaskenandore #ThisIsTheWay https://www.instagram.com/p/B6tvkC0l6df/?igshid=1nh9ui9cjbpby

"The Indian in space seeks to feel at home, to undo her perceived strangeness by asking: why can’t indigenous peoples also project ourselves among the stars? Might our collective visions of the cosmos forge better relationships here on earth and in the present than colonial visions of a final frontier?"- Lindsey Catherine Cornum
