Good evening to each and everyone and once again I send out my appreciation for all the good medicine and positive energy being shared with me over the last few weeks. The journey continues and I am super happy to share these new works of pure A.I. art infused with my woodland style and its elements. This was not such an easy thing to do. A.I. is obviously quite incredible to co create with and there’s no doubt I absolutely love working with it. The technology still has some quirks and issues in defining the true elements of the woodland art form but man o man are we off to a great start with it. It’s challenging and with my new indigenous art genre in Woodland A.I. the spectrum of visualization continues to grow and manifest some spectacular creativity and energy thus far. 

This collaboration with Death milk designs and Jacobson native art is truly the first of its kind in the entire world and obviously throughout the entire woodland school of art. No one has even dreamed of these realities and I am no doubt the first to ever do it. I pride myself on that. It’s cutting edge creativity and with infusing my style with the brilliant mind of my friend in Death milk, we’ve done something together the world has never seen before. It’s next level for sure and I’m truly proud to be opening up this door and experimenting with such incredible technology. These works were done through Dall-e, photoshop, flux and upscale with Magnific A.I. 

The process of working on these and trying to “indigenize A.I.”  is quite an endeavour no less. I still prefer making paintings with image prompts being infused as it gives me a more personal feel and touch but in working with pure A.I. as our creative tool, I think we did an amazing effort with these full A.I. image prompts. Exciting energy for sure and these are so fantastically imagined and surreal that we believe we are on the outer edges of tapping into creativity itself in ways never before imagined. Powerful, playful and full of imagination. Welcome to expanding the blueprints of Woodland A.I. Feel free to enjoy these and I look forward to sharing more in the near future. With great love and respect I say to all of you…Chi-Miigwetch and all my relations, Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ 🌈🦅🌈

Great news: The estate of Norval Morrisseau and it’s white colonizer poster boy in Cory ‘Ding dong’ Dingle are being sued for 1.45 million…

 

Good afternoon to each and everyone and here’s some fantastic news coming forward about the alleged criminal activity and business practice of the now defunct and self destructive behaviours of the Norval Morrisseau estate and their poster boy in white colonizer Cory “ding dong” Dingle. Give it a read as I have and this is going to be fascinating in the coming weeks and months ahead. I’m happy to see that the spirit of the truth is opening up doors that many of us haven’t been through. I’ve always stated that whatever is done in darkness will come to light. It appears that the truth isn’t done with this work of exposing the reality behind the scenes. I may have to rethink my situation. I’m not alone is wanting the truth. There are others willing to speak up and confront the deceptions. Here’s the article by CBC:

Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd. has been outspoken against the profuse fraud of the late artist's work. Now, it faces a $1.45 million lawsuit claiming it defamed an art gallery by implying its works could be fakes. 

Cory Dingle has spoken out against art fraud to multiple media outlets, including CBC, as Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd.'s executive director. He's now being sued alongside Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd. for defamation and breach of contract by a Calgary art gallery, a lawsuit filed in Alberta's Superior Trial Court on March 11 claims. 

EA Studios claims that Dingle's statements to potential buyers implied the gallery "is, generally, an unethical organization of low moral character that sells inferior and possibly fake artworks that were obtained through an abusive, and possibly criminal, exploitation of a vulnerable Indigenous artist," according to the claim. 

None of the claims have been proven or tested in court.

"The Estate looks forward to defending itself against these allegations and due to the ongoing litigation we do not have any further comments at this time," said Dingle in an email to CBC. 

Art gallery claims breach of contract, defamation

As a prolific artist who did not keep records of his works, Morrisseau's catalogue has become a popular target for fraud and forgeries. 

The lawsuit claims EA Studios (Jasper) Ltd. gallery had an agreement with Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd., represented by Dingle. 

Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd. would reassure potential customers that the painting they wanted to buy was an authentic Morrisseau, and Dingle would get 10 per cent of any successful sale to clients he referred to the gallery, according to the statement of claim. 

The lawsuit claims Dingle did the exact opposite. Instead, it claims Dingle implied EA Studios' Morrisseau paintings may be  fakes, and suggested they purchase authentic works directly from himself and/or Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd.

"Specifically, Dingle and/or the alleged estate failed to reassure the plaintiff's potential clients of the value and authenticity of the plaintiff's works, and instead falsely disparaged the plaintiff and then tried to, or did, convince said potential clients to purchase works from Dingle and/or the alleged estate," says the claim. 

The documents claim the gallery hired two private investigators in October 2024 to pose as potential buyers interested in paintings in its inventory after becoming suspicious that Dingle was not holding up his end of the deal. EA Studios claims the private investigators had two calls with Dingle, during which he made defamatory statements that undermined the gallery's credibility and reputation.

EA Studios claims  it has owned and sold Morrisseau's work since the 1980s. The gallery's founder had "a long-standing friendship and positive business relationship" with the late artist, the court documents say.  

It argues that Dingle's and/or Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd.'s statements to potential buyers implied the gallery "is considered, by Norval's children, to be a scammer," and "committed a criminal act by stealing and selling Norval's personal belongings".  

The gallery claims the "defamatory statements" are false, undermined its reputation and cost it clients. It claims Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd. made additional defamatory statements in a social media post that it is the only seller of authorized, legal prints of Morrisseau's work. 

Lawsuit claims Morrisseau's children supported authenticity of fraudulent works

The lawsuit claims during the last years of his life, Morrisseau fought to keep fraudulent copies of his work from spreading in the market. It also claims that shareholders of Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd. did little to stop the fraud. 

"From at least the early 2000s on, for financial gain, the adult children supported and promoted the authenticity of many of the fraudulent works and assisted, by spreading false information, in undermining efforts to expose and stop the fraud," reads the claim filed against Norval Morrisseau Estate Ltd. and Cory Dingle. 

Morrisseau's biological children sued his estate in 2010 after being excluded from his will, according to the claim. 

The artist from Ojibway Bingwi Neyaashi Anishinaabek First Nation in northwestern Ontario died in 2007. He bequeathed all of his material and artistic assets to friend Gabor Vadas. The parties settled out of court, and Vadas's and Morrisseau's children divided the estate, said the court documents. 

The claim against Norval Morrisseau Ltd. and Cory Dingle was filed March 11, 2025. The defendants had not yet filed a statement of defence at publication time. Indeed there will be much more to come and all my relations for now…

It’s an end to an era for me, fuck the legacy of the dead pedophile artist in Norval Morrisseau and fuck the Canadian art scene…

 

Well folks, it’s been one hell of a journey as an indigenous artist for me and I’ve reached a crossroads with regard to my experiences. I simply cannot go on pretending that everything is ok and it’s all going to go away. This battle of exposing the truth has done me no favours. The delusion is so deep and grotesque that eventually one reaches their breaking point. The insanity of people trying to pretend that Morrisseau was some sort of hero and cultural icon is on most days an uphill battle. The depths of gross negligence and arrogance is simply too much and I’m just one person trying to stand up for the truth. I don’t have much support because most people don’t even know how to grasp what I’ve found. They don’t want to address it and I simply don’t have enough time or the resources to continue on. Fighting for the truth and trying to stand up with integrity and honesty slowly wears me down. It’s a lot like all the efforts I went through in fighting the art fraud. It’s tiring my heart and soul. I cannot trust any of these people associated with the Morrisseau estate. They are all fuckin liars and real scumbags. These people literally make me sick to my stomach. I see them for who they are but many don’t because they don’t know this story, my story. I’m beginning to sense that I really don’t matter…it’s a difficult reality and most of the time I feel like giving up. 


This is the colonial Canada in full effect where money and power are at its roots. Built on the genocide of my people. Mostly white Canadian colonizers who use their education and influence to deflect from the real stories as I’ve outlined and tried to share here. I’ve written emails, Facebook posts and articles doing my best to be honest and straightforward. I’ve had a few people who have sided with me and who stand in solidarity but not enough to help me continue the fight. It gets challenging because I feel I’m alone in this. I truly understand why those who have been sexually abused find it so hard to come forward. With no support and financial backing it gets really difficult to continue on. I also have lost my enthusiasm for art and in dealing with the Canadian art scene. It’s really fuckin gross to tell you the truth. On top of that I’m someone who suffers from a lifetime disability since 1998 with a chronic condition and on most days my symptoms get the best of me. I struggle with depression and ptsd. It’s beginning to effect my confidence in writing, spelling and numbers. I go through long pauses in my creativity and feel discouraged as an artist most of the time. I owe much of my suffering to the outright ignorance of white settler Canadian society. The gallery scene, the museums, the academics and art historians. All of them absolutely fuckin blind to the truth. 

This is the daily struggle and reality that I am faced with. Who wants to be apart of a system like this? I feel so betrayed by the whole thing. From giving years of my life to trying to find justice to eventually being completely let down by having to come to terms with so much wasted time, neglect, lack of support and denial of my truth. No wonder some people snap and go on a killing spree. I understand that now and although these thoughts have crossed my mind, I have to think of what’s best for my little boy. So I choose to try and find a way forward in this world of darkness and deceptions. Liars with money isn’t an easy thing to face. I don’t have many connections in the Canadian art scene because I simply cannot trust it. With bullshitters around the Morrisseau estate, the world of academia, lawyers and consultants, Canadian art galleries and such, it just takes a toll. 


I don’t want it no more. I don’t want to have to participate in a corrupt system as this. It’s just too fucked up and it’s become so big that it’s easy to get lost in it all. I’m done. I’m bowing out and will look for more smaller and intimate ways of moving forward and getting on with it. It certainly hasn’t been easy but at this point I’ve tried my very best to push through. Most of the people I’ve met around Morrisseau are total fuckin cowards. Most of them white settler colonizers. Believing the lies they are told because of the money involved, chasing the money, property and prestige. The foundations of colonial Canada. 

Any how I want to end this article with a statement of my truth. I fought the art fraud with this guy in Kevin hearn from the Canadian pop band in the Barenakedladies. He was someone I respected until I started speaking up about the historic sex crimes of Norval Morrisseau. The last thing I said to him after he said to me that I was speaking bad things about Norval was that I had to let him go as a friend. I couldn’t be friends with someone who was siding with my sexual abuser. He chose the dead pedophile artist. After everything I did for him, he chose that. That was really the last knife in the heart. He chose a lie and to not stand in solidarity with the real and painful truth. My truth. I’ve now found a total of 8 sexual assault victims. And where are they?


Fuckin nowhere to be found. Not a call, not a message, not an email. Nothing. It’s gross negligence and it’s absolutely phoney and fake in my books. I see now why the Creator removed them all from my life. They couldn’t be there for me in my darkest hour, they couldn’t extend me any grace because my truth would demolish their delusion. Morrisseau was a sex abuser of children. Of young men like myself at that time. They stand with that…I have chosen to stand alone…

Good bye…for now. Until we meet again. Miigwetch for everything and all my relations,

Sharing some of my current world views through my indigenous lens @ Jacobson native art

 

No question what took shape yesterday in the colonizer White House is an absolute shame for diplomacy worldwide. What a disgusting set of actions and verbal diarrhea being spewed by American president Donald J. Trump and the vice president in J.D Vance. What a disgrace in how these white colonizers operate on stolen Indian land requiring President Zelenskyy to express his gratitude and being absolutely thankful. Holy Christ it just blows my mind on how severely ignorant these guests on our land choose to operate, even still in 2025. So vile and pig like. So selfish and self centered. So grandiose and asinine. 

I’ve been watching this shit show for years now and it just gets worse and worse and worse. I have to hand my respect for how Zelenskyy handled the situation. I’d get the fuck out of there asap. It just seems so crazy how this continued system goes on and on. It’s such a broken framework of doing business with everyone in the world. Acting in such an insulting way to someone fighting for the sovereignty of his country, his, people, his culture. I respect that. Bigtime. What an insult to such a warrior for his people. I’m choosing to boycott American made. I’m not interested in doing any business with America. I’m stepping away from that. I won’t sell any art to America during this administration. 


Siding with Russia regardless of the behind the scene’s positioning and movements between these world super powers and using Ukraine as a proxy along with the U.N and NATO is deeply ugly and dangerous for everyone involved. The fighting, the killing, the destruction is such a weakness and all of it is unacceptable and unnecessary. It’s not intelligent at all. It’s all fear based and controlling. Such shadow self energy. Not inspiring and dead and heavy, it’s utter ugliness. I fuckin hate it. Much like 2 steps forward and 46 steps back. There’s just no progress in it. So defeating for humanity. All of us. It’s such a shameful reflection for future generations. I want to see way more problem solving and relationship building between all nations. Worldwide. I expect better because I do better each and every day. Even A.I knows better and creates opportunities for solutions way better than most humans and countries. The love and wellness of the future must be at the heart of what we want to create and design as better blueprints for humanity. 

We owe the children of the world today a better plan of global actions helping to lay down a better future for everyone and for humanity to make a greater way for all life. This is how we survive and grow and collaborate with one another. Technology will no doubt be apart of that. Much like how we are open to the advancement of technology in our lives, so should we choose to collaborate with each other on a global scale. As an indigenous soul I aim to find and see the good in who we are and to look for ways through truth and reconciliation as a people to find meaningful ways of continuous transformation. I aim this arrow for the entire world, my future, my son and our legacy. 

I also wanted to congratulate the HAIDA GWAII for their huge victory in reestablishing Aboriginal title throughout their homelands. What a beautiful blessing for the entire nation and future generations of the magnificent Haida people. It will serve as a path forward, a blueprint for future negotiations between us First Nations and Canada. Real nation to nation respect. Treaty partners. I was honoured a few years ago to be invited to the Robert and Reg Davidson potlatch. It still inspires me greatly on witnessing how the entire community of their people surround their artists as the true cultural leaders that we are. I’ll carry those experiences into my very future as an Anishanabe artist forever. 


Enjoy the weekend and once again an honour to share some of my views on the current world scene here in 2025. More to come and enjoy this press conference that took shape today in England with the European allies surrounding Ukraine including an appearance by Canada. I thought it was really inspiring on how they’re trying to work together and support the ending to this war. They stand in solidarity. A lesson that most certainly can be relearned regarding the United States of America. Have a safe evening…
