Label TextRoger Parish's book serves as a commentary on early treaties struck between the colonies and the Haudenosaunee. The front and back covers feature oversized Indian coins and stylized patterns that reference wampum belts. Between the handmade pages of the book is a representation of the George Washington Confederation Treaty Wampum Belt that guaranteed peace and friendship between the two groups. Set into the wampum belt are figures drawn in black ink to signify signers of the treaty.Exhibition History"0’nigoe:yo:h:h: Thinking In Indian", University of Buffalo Art Gallery, SUNY Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, July 16, 2022 - October 2, 2022.
