Nani Coat2003-83/1

'In the Spirit of the Ancestors'-In 1991, I commissioned Dorothy Grant to make me a coat. My nani coat, I called it, in honor of Florence Edenshaw Davidson, my teacher, collaborator, and surrogate grandmother (nani). The design tells of Florence's and my collaboration. On the front: Raven (nani Florence) telling the story; on the back: Frog (me) receiving it. I wore this coat to Florence's memorial potlatch in October 1994. - Margaret Blackman
