Ep. 6: Hunter Dewache, Miskomin Twenish and Summer Harmony-Twenish
Episode 6 is guest produced by Summer-Harmony Twenish. It features a dive into queer Algonquin relationality with our homelands, histories and kin from the perspective of three young Anishinabe artists from Kitigan Zibi.
This episode emphasizes joy, hope and the importance of daydreaming about what our artistic practices could look like beyond settler-colonial and capitalist influences!
Credits: Season 3 graphic created by Hunter Dewache. Custom intro / outro sounds created by Bucko aka Chris Binkowski. Podcast editing is by fin-xuan, with post-production audio work by Nicole Bedford. This season of To Be Continued: Troubling the Archive is generously funded by a Digital Now grant from the Canada Council for the Arts.
Hunter Dewache
Hunter Dewache (he / him) is a 2-Spirit Anishinabe (Algonquin) multimedia artist and communications consultant from Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg. His practice consists of creating interventions between what is viewed as traditional and what is modern. He has worked within and outside of his community to increase the visual presence of the Algonquin / 2-Spirit identity in varied spaces. When creating digital illustrations, logos, videos and other forms of media, he aims to strengthen relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. You can view some of his work on Instagram @continual_interventions. You can also give him a follow at @hunter_dewa for other content related to his work.
Miskomin Twenish
Miskomin Twenish is a self-taught Algonquin artist from Kitigan Zibi, currently residing in Ottawa. Her artistic journey started in 2015 and she has been in love with creating ever since, working primarily with acrylic paint on stretched canvas and digital illustration. Her artwork is heavily influenced by traditional Woodlands style.
As an artist, colour is an important element for Miskomin; she likes to aim for bright colours in hopes that the viewer who looks at her art feels a significant uplift in their spirit. Miskomin also hopes to inspire other Indigenous artists in the same way she was and that they get the uplift they need to create. Follow her on Instagram @Miskotheartist_.
Summer-Harmony Twenish
Summer is an Algonquin person from Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg who works from a queer and Indigenous feminist lens. With vibrant and playful colours, Summer's digital art and illustrations carry both Indigenous cultural traditions and self-determined visions of what's to come. Their creative expression is breathtakingly tender and fiercely anti-colonial, amplifying body positivity and Indigenous liberation. Their digital arts and illustrations are intended to be lovingly held up as mirrors for Indigiqueer femmes, reflecting back their beauty, brilliance and radical joy.
