Evan Ducharme is Metis with ancestral ties to the Cree, Ojibwe, and Saulteaux Peoples from the historic community of St. Ambroise, Manitoba (Treaty 1 Territory). His multidisciplinary work examines Metis history and cultural iconography in dialogue with Indigenous perspectives on gender, queerness, and environmental responsibility. His work applies ancestral and contemporary Metis knowledge to affirm a modern representation of Indigenous peoples within the fashion medium. Many outlets have featured his works, including Discorder Magazine, National Geographic, FASHION Magazine, and Vogue.com.
