Description

Number Twenty six of the Spirit Shield collection by Jan Jahnke, former instructor at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. Influenced by her studies in Ojibwe spiritual culture, this series invokes impressions of the earth and that which has passed before us. Each piece holds found material to further solidify our relation to what has existed before, and the artist hopes to convey a sense of protection. Pieces are left unframed to allow a more tangible connection to the work.
