Inspired by the ancient Iroquois creation story, “Sprout and Shard” depicts a pregnant ‘Sky Woman’ tumbling frantically towards open water below when observant birds join together to help break her fall. Her subsequent birth of twin boys portrays the classic tale of good and evil, with Sprout creating everything good for man while Shard destroyed much of his brother’s work, making everything bad.
