Drawing inspiration from generations of artisans who came before her, Sac & Fox Nation artist Janae Grass honours this rich history of beadwork, ribbonwork and traditional design motifs in her namesake collection.

"To me, the designs in this collection are a testament to the story of the Sac & Fox people. The style of these designs have withstood the removal from the Great Lakes area to Oklahoma, assimilation, and hardships we face today. Being one of a few Woodland tribes in Oklahoma, our connection to our original homelands is reflected in our beadwork, ribbonwork, and ways of life. My goal as a visual artist is to create works that contribute to our material culture and embody our stories. The designs in this collection are mainly loom beadwork designs implemented in a new, contemporary way that honors the design heritage of the Woodland aesthetic."
