The Fabric of Our Communities - Mia

My final project was an art project featuring photographs of 12 Native women loving themselves. I put it in the shape/form of a quilt, to talk about how Native women make up the vital fabric of the community, and are connected by similar experiences of resistance and sustenance. The colors reflect water, fire, air, and earth. The top of the quilt represents the sky, the middle represents tall things which grow from the ground, like mountains, trees, and buildings, and the bottom is the earth or water like the ocean.
