Wampum Dust Fan Belt inspired bench

The people of the Haudenosaunee confederacy use wampum belts to record important events and agreements. The Dust Fan Belt represents the Tree of Peace that unites the 6 nations of the confederacy, their territories and the everlasting life of the Haudenosaunee people.

Medicine Women

This collection of native women dancers from across North America is titled Medicine Women to amplify the power, strength and healing nature of women. The collection includes women from 10 different dance categories and a wide range of different tribal affiliations.

​

As a native woman, we bare a lot of weight.

A lot is expected of native women and native women expect a lot of themselves.

It is Harmony's experience that people often take this for granted and put an unreasonable and disproportionate amount of responsibilities on to the shoulders of our women.

We are always there to pick up the pieces when things fall apart and we are warriors,

but under these conditions we often end up neglecting our own well-being. 

My work is intended to amplify the value of native women and empower women to value themselves.

Stolen Sisters

Harmony Hill created the Stolen Sisters Collection to honour and raise awareness for MMIW (Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Girls). When native women go missing in Indian Country, our communities say that she disappears twice, once in physical form and again in the media because our missing and murdered women seldom receive media coverage and are not tracked by law enforcement agencies.
