Prayer for travel mercies, Tommee Sherwood

Artists inspired by the project to return the rock to Kaw Nation have created artwork in mediums including drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, poetry, song, and sculpture. This basket woven by local artist Tommee Sherwood features natural materials including dyes made from walnut husk, acorn, Osage orange, and pokeberry. After learning that supplies at the artist workshops put on by the Sacred Red Rock Project would be limited, Sherwood thought, “there should be enough art supplies by the river to make a piece of art.”
