Mobilize Waskawewin
ABOUT THE DESIGNER
mobilize waskawewin “streetwear wit a cree flair”. Intended at creating evolved perspectives on Indigenous art, clothing, and movements. To mobilize people with the first great law of Nehiyaw culture, Love, as the
focus. We come together to share stories, community, and energy so that we can dismantle the systems who have held our people and land captive, collectively we build the future our ancestors dreamed of.
Clothing speaks loud, speaks bold, and introduces who you are when people first see you. Using textile as a main medium I speak loud through clothing for the representation of all my Indigenous kin, 2spirit kin, and all the weirdos our there looking for where they belong. My teachings from the ceremony circles show how we are all to be in balance with each other, to sit on the same level, to be inclusive, and share our gifts with one another.
This movement is for all my cousins, the earth, and the ancestors.

This collection is about the honouring, sharing, and revitalization of our native language Nehiyawewin (Cree). Through textile we appreciate all those who came before us, who resisted the attempted genocide of colonization. Our ancestors who have allowed for this moments. We honour them through how we speak loud, and how we carry ourselves with the elegance of a thousand generations.
