Description

Jaune Quick-To-See Smith is an acute observer of the intermingling of mainstream popular culture and native tradition, as well as a strong activist for her People. A Native American of Salish, Cree and Shoshone heritage, she extracts from her root’s ancient oral myths and pictographic imagery that she juxtaposes with contemporary issues and images in a painterly montage style. “Sticky Mouth” is a translation of what her people called bears.
