  • Vina Brown's indigenous name is ƛ̓áqvas gḷ́w̓aqs, which loosely translates to Copper Canoe Woman. She grew up in unceded Haíłzaqv territory in Bella Bella, British Columbia and currently lives on the Lummi reservation in Washington State. She's a member of the Haíłzaqv Nation and she's Nuučaan̓uɫ on her maternal side.

    Vina first learned to bead, weave, and sew from her aunties and grandmothers and spent a lot of time immersed in the renaissance of the culture and art of her ancestors, specifically the painting and carving of Northwest coast formline.

    Vina believes making art is her inherent right as an Indigenous human. She creates to preserve the stories of her ancestors and family. Vina's work has been highlighted on the runways at New York Fashion Week, Santa Fe Indian Market Fashion Show, Vancouver Indigenous Fashion Week, and several local and Indigenous media outlets.
