This artist infuses living Mi'kmaq history into his work

Jordan Bennett returns to porcupine quillwork as a source of inspiration. 
"In Bennett's print, he references the everyday life of Mi'kmaq people. Bennett says, "The entirety of this piece, colour-wise, represents different stages of the day, all the different cycles on the day of the season, the life. For me these represent clouds. These designs and many different nations across Turtle Island, that's what they represent — clouds, cloud designs."
