Missing And Remembered Orignal Canvas

For my words only hold so much power. To articulate just how I feel may not be understood very well, at least not in English. So here I am, trying to put just the right amount of words, just the right amount of letters. Now, it’s up to you.

The ability to open the doors to the unknown in that temple of yours. For the people have struggled in one…two…many ways. Legacies of removal and decades of violence.

This is a portion of what I mean… Can you take the time to open those doors? To the Missing, murdered individuals that are not seen?

And perhaps, in the spaces between those words, you might find something else. Something that cannot be explained through language alone. Something carried in the body, passed through generations, and held in the spaces where memory meets identity.

And if my words only hold so much power, perhaps the rest can be found here. In the colors, in the figures, in the things left unsaid.

Now, it’s up to you.

To the Two-Spirit relatives, whose existence was never meant to fit within the boundaries imposed upon them. Whose identities, histories, and sacred roles existed long before someone decided there was only one way to be.

They are not simply missing. They are someone's child, someone's sibling, someone's love. They are stories that continue to exist beyond the moment the world stopped looking.
