The Plenty of Seeds exhibit by Obi-Cree artist Jessica Rachel Cook was worth the drive to Windsor. Here are a number of interpretations from my own journey.
The wall installation of Under the Blanket offered many interpretations beginning with the idea of a person sitting at a dinner table and reviewing in one own mind of how to use the eating utilizes at a formal dinner party. The salad fork, then the main course fork and knives, then the dessert spoons, etc. One the left side of the pew wheel are five typically male tools, wheat cycle, saw, pick fork, larger wheat cycle, etc. on the right side are typical ladies tools, washing board, scissors, meat slicer, etc. which one to use first. Which tools to start the day with, others to uses in the afternoon. Of course, starting out the day in prayer is a reflection of the pews with different items inside the refurbished church pews reflect. I am still looking at the different colors at the end of each pew, black, red, yellow, white.
