Hali Heavy Shield – Postcards from the Rez
Nato’yi’kina’soyi Holy Light that Shines Bright/ Hali Heavy Shield is a multidisciplinary artist and educator from the Blood Tribe (Kainai) of southern Alberta. Hali’s work is influenced by experiences in her home community, including Blackfoot stories, significant sites, family, and women as sources of strength and goodness. She often uses vibrant colours, text, and symbolism to braid Indigenous contemporary/traditional realities and imagined futurisms. Hali Heavy Shield also works to engage others in generative discussion and practices of reconciliation and creativity.
