From the PR - “Queer, Non-Binary, Indigenous Pop Artist Angel Baribeau Releases New Video Off Debut EP” -

its in the fragments of one’s existences one finds one’s essence. Its in the multiplicity one finds the universal, in the self one finds all the others, in the oneness we find the all of it, in the love of self we find the love of all and in one song one can find the all of all our stories.

“It’s important to see yourself in the world, and to have an image reflected back at you that accurately represents you. To see that positive imagery is fundamental to a child; at least, it was to me. If you don’t see yourself in the world, you might come to question whether your existence is valid. I felt this way for many years while growing up and it was only when I saw more folks like me I realized it’s okay for me to take up space.

“I want to do that for others. In my own intersectionality, I represent so many more folks that are constantly under-represented in my communities and mainstream media. I want people to see me and know our existence is valid and needed; to feel like you’re not alone is a powerful thing.” - Angel Baribeau
