Bound & Beholden
Fulton Orozco, Kimberly
Life Story
Provenance
"In a most-vulnerable state, a soft-bellied woman is blindfolded and bound to a carved
pole. This is the pole that stood in front of our clan house before the village of Howkan was
permanently abandoned. The abandonment of this village marks a shift in how the Kaigani
Haida taught and learned cultures. It is only with intention, focused attention, and a
willingness to unlearn what I thought I knew— about why my cultural inheritance has come
to me in fragments— that I will have eyes to see the truth, several generations after this shift", Kimberly Fulton Orozco
