$NiieihiiNookei is a Northern Arapaho artist based on the Wind River Reservation in central Wyoming. Their work blends contemporary design with Indigenous worldview, offering powerful visual narratives rooted in sovereignty, survival, and the enduring spirit of Native life. Drawing from ancestral memory and personal experience, $NiieihiiNookei creates original art that challenges stereotypes while honoring cultural boundaries—never replicating sacred traditions, but instead building new forms that speak to today’s Indigenous reality.
Through their online store, niieihiinookei.threadless.com, $NiieihiiNookei distributes wearable art across the world—clothing, prints, and accessories that reflect Native resistance, pride, and futurism. Each design is produced and fulfilled through Threadless.com, allowing for broad access while keeping creative control in Native hands.
