NINK January Issue

This issue centers Indigenous artists who use creativity as a pathway to healing, sobriety, and self-determination. Across tattooing, fashion, music, activism, and traditional arts, these creators carry ancestral knowledge forward while transforming lived experience into medicine. Their work speaks to resilience, cultural continuity, and the power of art to reclaim identity, strengthen community, and imagine liberated futures. Rooted in ceremony, grounded in resistance, and guided by love, this issue honors art not just as expression, but as survival, prayer, and legacy.
