This is beautiful! I was touched by the artist's voiceover alongside the images of nature and her paintings. They can't be separated. They are essentially one and the same. Just like Mother Earth and us. We cannot separate ourselves from the land we live on and off of and expect things to go well. Thank you for paying homage to the resiliency of indigenous people.. Well done!
