Iakoiehwahtha Patton is an art historian of the Northern Renaissance and a recent graduate of the University of Oxford. As a member of the Kanien'kehá:ka First Nations community, Iako’s identity as an Indigenous woman has shaped the perspective from which she studies. At Oxford, she has recently completed an MSt in History of Art and Visual Culture and an MSc in Visual, Material, and Museum Anthropology. Iako has focused on researching the funerary arts, rooted in an exploration of how artistic and material expressions negotiate complex social, political, and cultural dynamics, particularly in gendered and racialised contexts during the Renaissance. She has devoted much of her anthropological research to addressing the distinct needs of her community of Kahnawake by focusing on how art has been employed as both a medium of colonialism and a tool for Indigenous artists to reckon with such violence. In essence, Iako regards her art historical work as her duty to unveil the deep inequalities of colonial and gender relations embedded within art and anthropology.
