ABSTRACT

Jones, a young Ho-Chunk photographer, examines sites of tradition and modernity in his own Wisconsin communities. The path to the jerry-rigged tent is made of sustenance. It leads to a kind of home-temporary, but traditional-a path and a tent that have occurred in this place for perhaps hundreds of years in ever-changing contexts. An unpeopled communal meal calls attention to the land, to the changing but unbuilt site that is of crucial importance to Native peoples.
