11”×14” print on fine art paper
"Majiiluulak"
which translates to moth in Nisga'a
Enclosed and locked away
Out of the light, away from the day.
Labeled like a specimen
In the name of preservation.
Denied the natural life cycle,
Our pieces are ancestral.
Stored away in the dark,
The spirits of our people
Longing for the light.
