Guests gather to behold the clan names bestowed on babies and little children, to hear the announcements of marriages, graduations, birthdays, a soldier's return, or to share the last meal of a departed loved one who is making their final journey home. We come to the table, cedar smoke clinging to our hearts, to share the joys and sorrows of life and in doing so we uplift and comfort one another. The table becomes a refuge where we are nourished, restored, and connected to our culture. The shadow and light put us in the midst of nature and the unknown. We remember where we come from, and, like our ancestors before us, the simple act of sharing ritual food sustains us for another day. The dishes in this installation were created by press molding my Grandmother’s feast dishes. Before paper plates, it was common for Osage women to own hundreds of dishes to put on a feast. The napkins have traditional Osage designs and patterns on them created by an image transfer process. The frybread in the center of the table was made by making real frybread and dipping it in polyurethane. Mixed Media Installation 2001 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594063461092-59MMJLWSH20EZAR1SEC5/Osage+Wedding-attire-wb.jpg Installations - To Know Your People Are Beautiful A contemporary Osage wedding coat is paired with deconstructed images of historical documents written by U.S. government agents, traders, and journalists. The records are reconfigured to reflect the Osage orthography and other symbolic patterns. These documents, meant to define us were dehumanizing and integral to the systematic intentions of erasure. The wedding coat celebrates a continuum of culture. It reminds us the Osage have always defined themselves through the beauty of their own language and beliefs.

Despite the efforts to destroy indigenous ways of being, we are here, we are thriving, and there is a powerful resurgence of our languages. There are certain words, specific to the Osage community, that have never been lost, they have continually circulated, from one generation to the next. Wah-shkah the word on the center panel is one such word. It means do your best and make a strong effort. It is heard whenever someone is beginning a task or a serious endeavor. It is meant to inspire, a good word to use when encouraging those who diligently work towards the revitalization of our languages. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1598486080032-HJZXHFQOMKQ4XGJ5M9WD/memory-bottle-web.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - Memory Bottle Porcelain Clay, 27 X 5 in. 2020 Photo by Clair Cross, Gilcrease Museum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594058565456-6753UUORDDEULKHOWY6C/Standing+in+the+Light.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - Standing In The Light Clay, slips, gold leaf, 2016 31 x 16 1/2 x 5 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594058560492-EU82IH65ADQC1DNTFARX/Memory+Bowl+II.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - Memory Bowl II Clay, slips, gold luster glaze, 2010 22 1/2 x 22 1/2 x 5 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1595469904234-RJ27AOYPUZTAT1VVA6ZM/clay+purse2.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - Clay Purse Clay, slips, 2014 5 x 7 x 2 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594058584326-K37A0J6ZVF4POZ1RA1LZ/Purse.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - Purse Clay, slips, collage, 2008 5 x 7 x 2 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594059761127-4W2EV35LZCEFNF3M7D5B/Clay_Figures-rs-web.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - So Many Ways to Be Human Clay, gold luster glaze, and mixed media collage, 2020 10 -12 in. each figure. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594059837638-BL2XOY3MD3K7BBBFDC7O/Wall-piece-RS-white-bkg-web.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - When Considering the Earth and Sky Clay, slips, gold luster glaze, 2020 44 x 33 x 1 1/2 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594059875567-54P2EG9ZBW8O1C9LCXL3/Hanontse.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - It's a Bucket With A Lid On It Clay, underglaze, 2016 7 1/2 x 7 1/2 x 7 1/4 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594060093753-0P7F09IDOA01Q34D0T3L/Star+Vessel.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - Sky Vessel Clay, slips, gold luster glaze, 2013 32 x 8 x 8 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1594090021328-VTZAJSS5BIGQ4NX2AXUT/What+My+Heart+Knows.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - What My Heart Knows Porcelain clay, 2016 5 x 6 x 7 in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1595470254704-T7CDZECYNFIIOFM2UG49/WomanwithCorn-web.jpg Clay Sculpture 1 - Woman With Corn Clay, Textile, gold glaze, 2015 https://www.anitafieldsart.com/resume daily 0.75 2024-01-04 https://www.anitafieldsart.com/home daily 1.0 2020-09-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1596953790164-YI54UOUHVZYN4DHBKX59/wedding-coat_web-selection.jpg home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a615c237131a594ea13909a/1596953826510-94UPW82SR1U9NJ3TB29A/woman-figure-web-selection.jpg home https://www.anitafieldsart.com/resume-1 daily 0.75 2020-08-26
