Zintkala Owayawa
Size: 36 × 36 “ (H x W)

Rooted in Lakota language and symbolism, Zintkala Owayawa combines Zintkala (bird) and Owayawa (school or place of learning).
Much like a nest—where life begins, instincts awaken, and first lessons are learned—this piece speaks to themes of nurturing, growth, and transformation. It honors the sacred space where we are shaped by care, challenge, and quiet wisdom.
