Toni Easterson (she/her) stitches out the ordinary stories. But nothing is ordinary: exhibits, shows, awards, galleries, animal tracks, bird migrations, a note passed to a person across the room, her aunties's life given to her in the symbols on a buckskin jacket. Who was it who said that poets, artists, and singers of heart songs have all the answers? Because they do. She has no answers, but she listens and makes places for the words.
