Whess Harman
Whess Harman is a member of the Carrier Wit’at Nation and currently resides on the traditional territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. He doesn’t like cops and believes in land sovereignty for Indigenous peoples all across the globe, including Palestine. He’s most interested in finding paths to liberated futures alongside the many who share rage and despair in the face of the seemingly unrelenting shit-storm of empire.
POTLATCH PUNK WORLD TOUR 2 is a new series of ink drawings by Whess Harman depicting rambunctious, crowded, sweaty mosh pits from an imagined all-Indigenous, very queer, punk venue. These works center on the importance and impermanence of rollicking, chaotic DIY spaces as places of gathering, community-based resistance and survival.
