"CyberPowWow" — a chat room functioning as an interactive digital art gallery, allowing people to form communities both online and in real life—provided "a means for indigenous artists and storytellers to secure footing in the digital urban." Skawennati worked with indigenous artists and writers who customized the space with images, scripts, and indigenous avatars. In 2011, she was awarded an Eiteljorg Contemporary Art Fellowship which recognized her as one of "the best and most relevant native artists." Her Machinima series "TimeTraveller™" has episodes on the death of Mohawk saint Kateri Tekakwitha, the Dakota Sioux Uprising of 1862, the 1990 Oka Crisis, and other watershed events in Indigenous history. This multiplatform work "resist[s] pan-Indian and neo-luddite stereotypes of First Nations peoples." Furthermore, it seeks to highlight the "misinterpretation and abuse of Indigenous art and people." Part of the 2017 solo exhibition"Tomorrow People," "She Falls for Ages" retells a Haudenosaunee creation story using sci-fi, the virtual world and a feminist lens. Her version included a futuristic aesthetic and bright colours, created using the Second Life program as a medium. She is a multiple award winner, particularly for her project "TimeTraveller™", a nine episode Machinima series that used science fiction to examine First Nations histories. In 2015 she represented Canada at the Biennial of the Americas. Skawennati was a 2011 Eiteljorg Contemporary Art Fellow, and a Best New Media winner at ImagineNATIVE in 2009 for "TimeTraveller™" and in 2013 with the AbTeC collective for "Skahiòn:hati – Rise of the Kanien’kenhá:ka Legends".
