Description

Brita Brookes Native American Photography will be featured in the next of a planned series of small exhibitions showcasing the work of Michigan artists.

This exhibit displays Brookes' experiences participating in Native American Pow Wows in the Three Fires Confederacy area of Michigan and Ontario. Although she is not Native American in her personal heritage, she has been actively involved in the Native American community in Michigan, California, South Dakota, North Dakota and Ontario.

Photography has always been her passport for learning about people and community. These photos reflect some of the qualities of light, dance, movement, texture, emotion and energy found at a Pow Wow event.
