Exhibition Label: "American Indian Art at the Spencer Museum," 6-Sep-2003 to 19-Oct-2003, Andrea Norris The six photographs displayed here are half the works in Tsinhnahjinnie’s Women of Hope: Portraits of Indigenous Women portfolio, which formed the basis for poster sets that were widely distributed, with a study guide, to schools and community centers throughout the United States in 1997. A panel of American Indian scholars and community people chose the subjects. Tsinhnahjinnie spent a year meeting and photographing the women and also documented her photography sessions.
