Christina Bekintis is an Anishinaabe artist who belongs to Ketegaunseebee First Nation, and is currently based off the shores of Lake Superior in Wawa, Ontario.
Known by her spirit name Fire Wolf and of the Eagle clan, her work is guided by spirit, visions, and dreams. Working primarily with acrylic paint, Christina creates paintings that reflect Indigenous teachings, cultural knowledge, and deep connections to land and spirit. Her art honours the beauty of Indigenous ways of life while giving voice to the land, ancestral guidance, and lived spiritual experience. Rooted in preservation and reclamation, her practice is centered on keeping culture alive and passing teachings forward to future generations. Through her work, Fire Wolf creates space for spirit to speak, offering reflection, connection, and continuity between past, present, and future.
She is Ever Sick! Consulting’s Traditional Knowledge Programs Manager and also the owner of her own business Fire Wolf Creations.
