Their work is an expression of love, intergenerational joy and resilience. Through their body and language, they speak to the past, present, and future. Their work is rooted in the strength to feel, express, and heal, and explores the hybrid space between tradition and Nehiyaw pop culture. Bringing their ancestors with them, Cheyenne moves through installation, photography, fashion, video, sound, public art, and performance art.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mgilfnqj-7ae00f11cf5c81712c775b11c20fa52c '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock ls-artiste-liens'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><a class=\"ls-artiste-lien ls-artiste-instagram\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/cheyennerainlegrande\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/main><!-- close content main element --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_2'  class='avia-section av-8hwo0p-a646fe8fbee47b4637388702181df12a main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_section  avia-builder-el-last  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-7066'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mgilghl6-8f7255eacb7ba4ccd0959d25a84ebf6d '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock ls-font-100'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h2 class=\"center\"><strong>Mullyanne N\u00eemito<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div class='flex_column_table av-7clts9-cb6bffd7297be02e57ce27c0fd295dcf sc-av_one_full av-equal-height-column-flextable'>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-7clts9-cb6bffd7297be02e57ce27c0fd295dcf\">\n.flex_column.av-7clts9-cb6bffd7297be02e57ce27c0fd295dcf{\nwidth:100%;\nmargin-left:0;\n}\n#top .flex_column_table.av-equal-height-column-flextable.av-7clts9-cb6bffd7297be02e57ce27c0fd295dcf .av-flex-placeholder{\nwidth:0%;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-7clts9-cb6bffd7297be02e57ce27c0fd295dcf av_one_full  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_one_full  ls-font-28 first flex_column_table_cell av-equal-height-column av-align-top  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-mgilhtya-569e34d78b22e766157de465f07d731f '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock ls-deux-colonnes-suivi'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In n\u00eahiyaw\u00eawin, \u201cN\u00eemito\u201d means \u201cthey dance.\u201d<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mullyanne N\u00eemito<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a performance and video work featuring two objects: a hybrid moccasin platform shoe and a sculptural shawl made from 3,300 Bepsi and beer tabs collected by the artist and their community over the past five years.
