About Chief Lady Bird
CHIEF LADY BIRD is a Chippewa and Potawatomi artist from Rama First Nation and Moose Deer Point First Nation. The first artist to create an emoji for Twitter for Indigenous Peoples Day/Indigenous History Month, she uses digital illustration, mixed-media work, street art/murals, and community-based workshops, to centre contemporary truths and envision Indigenous Futurisms. Nibi’s Water Song was her first book; she is also the illustrator of Smile So Big, written by Sunshine Quem Tenasco. You can find her online as @chiefladybird.
