Artists Statements:
I am a quiet and thoughtful person by nature and my art allows me to express my pride and perspective of the beauty and history of what I see and feel regarding my Ojibwe cultural identity. – Robin Van Wert
My work is created to explore, share, and carry on Ojibwe tradition. – Cari Tabor
I put to beadwork what I see in my mind. It always turns out so much better than what I think it will. I consider myself to be an old-style, in that I work with simple patterns and basic colors, but the work always turns out so beautifully. -Pamela Iceman
