Selling prints of Winter to help fund my Latest Project in Duluth, Minnesota
see below for purchase options
Last time I was in Duluth, MN I naively stepped off the plane mid-March in jeans, t-shirt and sneakers only to find 3-5 feet of snow on the ground and freezing temperatures. Man was I out of my element. Cold and red nosed I went about my work researching a project on education and domestic abuse from a Native American perspective. What I found was beauty, devotion and culture as well as hardships, injustice and pain.
I was lucky enough to meet some wonderful people who opened their hearts to me and taught me about the nuances of Domestic Abuse and policies relating to them, dispelled many misconceptions and began to show me Anishinaabe culture and traditions.
In the last email I exchanged with one of the women, she told me that "Ziigwan (spring) has finally told Biiboon (winter) to stop flirting with her, and it looks like we may have an actual spring!"
I loved the line so much that I wanted to share with you pictures of Biiboon. I found the views so peaceful and quiet, the white of the sky touching the white of the earth creates an infinity that opens your imagination and sets you off dreaming.
In an effort to raise money for my work on education and domestic abuse from a Native American perspective I am selling fine art prints of a select few photographs in high editions. This allows me to offer prints at the special price of $50, $95 and $195.

Native Americans have been on this land for thousands of years, they've endured brutal conquest and continuos subjugation through government policy and racists stereotypes still in place today. I'm spending time with an invisible people that have mesmerized our imaginations for so many years through Hollywood and art-work but have never fully become a part of this nation-state. We failed to understand their history and place in a contemporary world nor have we given weight to their cultural norms, religious beliefs or social institution within our own. These elements are not at odds with a contemporary American society, but an important part of it and of every single person living on American soil.
