Ansley's Fish represents the traditional and sustainable Native American approach to agriculture. A fish, wedge of watermelon, and strawberries represent elements of the harvest to be enjoyed; while the handmade Kraft paper bag resembling a mass-produced grocery bag serves as a reminder that our crops originate from the earth, which should be respected.
