Ul’nigid’

Ul’nigid’ was made to honor the artist’s Grandmother, Martha Reed-Bark. This moveable book structure is able to take on multiple renderings, and utilizes letterpress printing with Cherokee syllabary metal type and weaving processes similar to those of a traditional Cherokee white oak basket. Ul’nigid’ is a demonstration of love and remembrance, wherein each technical process portrays strength and delicacy, allowing the artist to communicate a contemporary indigenous voice with deep influences from her traditional grandmother.
