At the age of 8, my Grandmother was sent to U.S. Government Indian Boarding Schools. She left The Standing Rock Indian Reservation, and her culture behind her. Her cultural heritage, as well as my own, was realigned. I am playing with the ideas of culture and power and how history can so easily be rewritten.
