Resting with Warriors 2001
Resting with Warriors 2001

While Haudenosaunee men were away fighting alongside the British during the War of 1812, the women maintained the families, communities and culture. These four prints were taken from large woodcuts that were made into sculptural platforms on which visitors could lie back and “rest with warriors.” The women in the prints are surrounded by culturally significant symbols. As Niro writes: “The women had to remain level-headed. . . Intellect, emotion, spirit and strength were four characteristics needed in these times of challenge.”
