Description
"Our traditional floral designs connect us to the natural world and are expressed in ceremony, healing, and everyday life," says Anishinaabe artist Sharifah Marsden. Her painting "Honouring our Life Givers" is transformed into a graceful umbrella design—a reminder that even dreary weather is a necessary part of the ecosystems that bring beauty into our lives.
