- Book Synopsis
- Resilience is the third colouring book made up of works by Anishnaabe artist Jackie Traverse. As with her previous highly successful colouring books, Sacred Feminine and IKWE , this new book contains both drawings and paintings by Jackie. Resilience honours the Indigenous Peoples who were colonized by and endured the violence of Canada's child stealing systems **x2014; residential schools, the Sixties Scoop and child "welfare." Some Indigenous people survived those systems; tragically, some did not. Jackie and her art pay tribute to and celebrate the resilience of Indigenous Peoples as they rebuild their communities and lives. Grassroots grandmother Geraldine (Gramma) Shingoose provides a foreword.
- About The Author
- Jackie Traverse, who is Anishinaabe, is a graduate from the School of Fine Arts at the University of Manitoba. She works in many mediums, including painting in oils and acrylics to mixed media, sculpture, and stop-motion animation. The injustices faced by Indigenous Peoples are integral to Traverse's art, leading her to be deeply involved in her community. Through her art she expresses her ideas and opinions while striving to inspire dialogue on addressing her people's social issues. Traverse is known at the national and international levels as a gifted artist. To her, painting is truly where her heart lies. "I can be inspired by ceremony and prayer, as well as kind and moving words. I love the culture of my people, and this is where most of my inspiration comes from."
