Nonamey (he/him) is a trans, Two-Spirit Indigenous artist and designer from the Anishinaabe Nation, enrolled at the Bad River Tribe. He lives and works in Portland, Oregon, where his practice moves between sculpture, fashion, video, and installation. From 2011 to 2019, he co-founded the artist collective, Dosshaus. His work lives at the intersection of sculpture, couture, and reclamation. At the heart of everything he makes is a commitment to anti-colonial aesthetics and a deep belief in the survival of trans and Native bodies through beauty, memory, and storytelling.
His work has traveled widely, shown nationally and internationally at venues including the Detroit Institute of Arts, Lucca Biennale, Native Fashion Week, CONTEXT Miami, CONTEXT New York, The Other Art Fair, and the LA Art Show.
