Ourselves/Our Land by Kay WalkingStick

Ourselves/Our Land
Tsa la gi/ Hocak (Cherokee/Winnebago)

"My present works are two-panel paintings in which the two parts relate in a non-formal manner. One is not an abstraction of the other; one is an extension of the other. I use landscape as the context but any part of the natural world would be appropriate. . . One side of the painting represents immediate visual memory; the other archetypal memory."
