"All of the matriarchs in my family have been members of the Standing Rock Indian Reservation in South Dakota and my native heritage can be traced back six generations to Ita ta Win (Wind Woman)." "All were sent away to government boarding schools, to realign their cultural heritage. All became outsiders in both the native and the white world. My work is about the difference between what is true about our collective history and what is imagined." An art exhibit by Lynne Allen, interim dean of BU College of Fine Arts
