Throughout the pandemic, a theme of resiliency appeared throughout my work. In connection to my recent mural titled “Trails of Vitality”, I designed this piece. It is meant to represent the resiliency of our people through the many hardships we face and continue to face, recognizing the connection to our seeds and earth as part of our cultural continuance. The concept for the artistic approach of the piece is resonant to a blueprint of information, white lines mapped out with information to inform others. In this piece seeds, food, plants, and nature carry a foundational map to our future generations.
