Blackhawk Creative

Blackhawk Creative is the alias for creative projects led by Veronica Blackhawk (they/she), a 2-spirit multidisciplinary artist from Treaty 3 (Ontario). With an emphasis on decolonization and eco-sustainability, they create pieces that weave their Anishinaabe heritage into modern pieces through slow fashion and handmade items. Blackhawk works with natural and recycled materials to make functional wood-burned art and beaded accessories.

A proud Anishinaabe artisan with Cree/Métis roots, they have been studying floral and woodland art in Ontario for over a decade. Now they are ready to showcase their work in Manitoba, while reclaiming their Métis and Swampy Cree roots in the process. As the leader of the band Tinge, they are sure to incorporate grungy aesthetics into the mix, offering merchandise from the band with new and past designs.

You can find updates on their work by searching up @blackhawkcreatives on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.

Blackhawk Creatives makes their WPRFM debut on both Saturday, April 5 and Sunday, April 6
