🦬 Have you seen blackfootcowboy’s mural animating the entrance of Fort Whoop-Up in Lethbridge, Alberta?
I’saap’isto’to’saohp Iniiksii: Reaching an agreement with the buffaloes is a powerful mural that honours the 10th anniversary of the Buffalo Treaty and celebrates the deep-rooted relationship between the Blackfoot people and the buffalo 🤝
Created through conversations with Elders and knowledge keepers, Sikapinakii’s artwork is filled with energy, symbolism, and storytelling – from buffalo bean flowers to puffball mushrooms, every detail speaks to reconnection, power, and history 💛
Sikapinakii’s work with the galtmuseum is a must-see if you’re in Lethbridge!
