In Native American culture the Medicine Wheel is a symbol of life. Each of the Four Directions (East, South, West, and North) are represented by a distinctive color, such as black, red, yellow, and white. I took inspiration from my Native heritage and created each of the four pieces to represent the four directions and their accompanying attributes. - Artist Statement, Four Directions Collection Materials: Fringe, sequin panels, antique bobbin lace, beaded trim, swarovski rhinestones, bird wings The Four Directions, Symbol Of Life, Four Directions, Medicine Wheel, Bird Wings, Life Symbol, American Culture, Native American Culture, Artist Statement
