Emergence

Emergence

Artist
Alisa Blake
Description
Handcrafted on home-tanned smoked moose hide, Emergence is inspired by the renewal that comes with each northern spring. Created using individually hand-sewn beads and gold findings, the design reflects new growth rising from the earth after a long winter.

Grounded in Indigenous artistry and land-based knowledge, this piece celebrates resilience, renewal, and the enduring connection between people and the natural world.
