“Honey Moccasin” is a 1998 film directed by Shelley Niro (Kanien’kehaka). A blend of comedy, mystery, and experimental artwork, the 47-minute film came about during the 1990s independent cinema boom that led to a wave of movies made by all-Native production crews.

In the latest episode of the Hyperallergic podcast, Niro joined Hyperallergic Editor-in-Chief Hrag Vartanian for an interview, where she reflected on growing up in the Six Nations of the Grand River, the Native artists she discovered on her dentist’s wall but rarely encountered in a museum before the mid-’90s, and her latest obsession with 500 million-year-old fossils. Her brilliant multidisciplinary art practice spanning film, sculpture, beading, and photography work was recently celebrated in a retrospective at the National Museum of the American Indian in New York titled “Shelley Niro: 500 Year Itch.” The show, a traveling exhibit, and will be on display next at the National Gallery of Canada, in Ottawa, Ontario.
