Boozhoo! I'm Finn Simard!

Finn Simard is registered status at Couchiching First Nation. He is an artist and designer working with visual material culture to examine current politics and policy schemes that implicate First Nations. His work investigates bad feelings and bad policy as manifestations of settler-colonial genocide, these investigations support his works goal of asserting the position that First Nation art is an exclamation of First Nation inherent sovereignty. Simard's work illustrates a problematized national narrative of First Nation and Canadian relations to ultimately reveal present modes of settler-colonialism, genocide, First Nation politics, and policy.
