Crane Title: “Ajijaak Manidoo Ombibizo” (Crane Spirit Rising)

Artist: Joy Kops

Artist Statement:

My interpretation of a traditional Ojibway bandolier bag makes this sculpture an important part of a contemporary movement in Nave American painting and beadwork. “Ajijaak Manidoo Ombibizo ascends in a flutter of wings from a sandy river bed on the edge of the Platte River.
