About the Artist: Aaniin! My name is Trisha Pitura, I am a member of Nipissing First Nation and co-founder of MINI TIPI as well as the Head of Design and Director of Artist Relations. I have always had a creative outlet, wanting to learn crafts that my grandmothers practised. I took a particular interest in wanting to learn to sew with the objective to learn more about quilting. I became more interested in the designs in the fabric, trying to find unique patterns that spoke to me. I was inspired by plants, flowers, nature and animals, and I found an emotional connection with fabric designs.
