ABOUT THE DESIGNER

Tsista Kennedy is an eighteen year old Onyota'aka Anichinabe artist from Beausoleil First Nation and Oneida Nation of the Thames. He uses the Woodland style and his experiences as an Aboriginal youth to create. 

''I hope my design will serve as an inspiration to other youth who begin to take an interest in the art of their nation.''

ABOUT THE DESIGN

''When I created this cover for MINI TIPI, I didn't want to include the geometric patterns you see everywhere. I used the theme of wild rice harvesting that is practiced in my Anishinabe culture. I also used the Anishinabe patterns to create my design.

In September, at the harvest moon, the Ojibwe begin the harvest of wild rice. The harvest is done in pairs by using a long stick to beat the rice into the canoe. For the Ojibwe, wild rice was historically a staple food used to feed their families during the winter.

10% wool, 90% acrylic
