Leo. Yerxa

Sommaire
Leo Yerxa, an artist of Ojibway ancestry, created this visionary art book celebrating wild horses and the natural world of the prairies. Using an extraordinary technique, he makes paper look like leather so that his illustrations seem to be painted on leather shirts and dresses. The art is accompanied by a song of praise to the horses that came to play such an important role in the lives of the First Peoples.
