The 50 Shades of Brown project started as an idea, grew into a series of beautiful photographs, and has now been born as an exhibition. The project is about embracing beauty, celebrating visibility and diversity, and connecting to what it means to be Two-Spirit.
50 Shades of Brown was created to honour and uplift Two-Spirit and Indigiqueer people living in Mohkinstsis and Treaty 7. Due to the ongoing effects of colonial violence, Two-Spirit people have existed on the margins of society and at many intersections of the Queer community.
Together, we will increase visibility of the Two-Spirit and Indigiqueer community while reflecting and celebrating its diversity.
