Through research\, mining community archives\, and social collaboration\, DinéYazhi´ highlights the intersections of Radical Indigenous Queer Feminist identity and political ideology while challenging the white noise of contemporary art. They have recently exhibited at Whitney Museum of American Art (2018)\, Henry Art Gallery (2018)\, Pioneer Works (2018)\, CANADA\, NY (2017); and Cooley Art Gallery (2017).
