Pictures Bring Us Messages / Sinaakssiiksi Aohtsimaahpihkookiyaawa: Photographs and Histories from the Kainai Nation Paperback - 2006 - 1st Edition
by Alison Brown; Laura Peers
First line
Just as the Blackfoot language builds up images in the minds of listeners - slightly different images, according to associations made by each individual listener - so Blackwood's photographs of Kainai people take on different meanings according to the contexts in which they have been placed.
