Conversation with Artists Chief Lady Bird and Aura Last - Unceded Voices Project
In this episode we get into conversation with artists Chief Lady Bird and Aura Last, collaborators on a large mural project as part of 2017\xa0Unceded Voices: Anticolonial Street Artists Convergence,\xa0a biennial convergence of primarily Indigenous-identified women/2spirit/Queer/, Black and Women of Color street artists in Tiohti\xe0:ke/Mooniyaang, unceded Haudenosaunee and Anishinabe territories (also known as Montreal). Chief Lady Bird and Aura Last connect\xa0about what collaboration means to their practice and how their collaborative work engages with youth as a central point of engagement. We also dive into how both artists practice their art as a form of decolonization and resilience, and how their work embeds coding into public urban spaces to reclaim power for indigenous peoples and as a form of healing.
