Shad Roe Art
11×14 Part of a series I did on Indigenous Food Futurism exhibit that imagined a world where the Native people of this land were able to use these centuries old techniques and industrialize them; profiting from our knowledge of the land instead of giving it away to colonizers. The Powhatan people fished for sturgeon and shad in the spring and foraged for carb-heavy Tuckahoe root to bulk up for the cold winter months. They shared their growing practices with colonists which ensured their mutual survival for many years.
