| Özet: | The boundaries between what is considered ab/normal seem to blur in our current transmodern society governed by the increasing threat of global crisis yielded by environmental, sanitary, geopolitical and economic instability.

This paper will take into consideration the most recent work by Kay WalkingStick and Christi Belcourt, who base their artwork in Indigenous grounding knowledge and relationality between human and non-human entities. |
