Description by Artist:     No description provided by artist …


Notes from DaVic Gallery:   Anishinaabe Peoples dream of Makwa the bear as offering to give medicines for the healing of man. With regard to herb medicine, Makwa is considered by herb specialists as ogimaa (leader) of all animals, which means that if a person dreams of Makwa he or she was chosen by the bear to be expert in the use of medicine made from plants and berries for curing illness.
