Areas of ExpertiseIndigenous fashion technologies, body sovereignty, alternative futures, Indigenous resurgence, Aabitaawizininiwag methodologies, re-stitching

Justine’s research centres Indigenous fashion technologies and garment-making as a practice-based method of inquiry towards re-stitching alternative worlds that prioritize Indigenous resurgence and liberation. Her work foregrounds all of the relationships that make up her identity as a Penetanguishene Aabitaawikwe; an identity she has inherited from her family and her Aabitaawizininiwag Ancestors. Justine is a member of what is presently known as the Georgian Bay Métis Community and is a descendant of the St. Onge and Berger-Beaudoin families.
