 the artist \n\nApril Ogimaakwe Stone\, an Ojibwe Black Ash basket maker
  from the Bad River reservation in northern Wisconsin\, has been working
  with black ash since 1998. She spent one year studying a basket in use 
 before attempting to weave her first basket in the spring of 1999 and en
 ded up falling in love with all things connected to this craft including
  live harvest and log processing of raw material into usable splint for 
 weaving. Since 2000\, she has researched and traveled extensively\, shar
 ing her skills with young and old. April harvests all of her raw materia
 ls from the ceded territory swamps and forests of northern Wisconsin and
  processes it all by hand\, providing beautiful\, natural material for h
 er own baskets and for baskets made by others. She believes in the tradi
 tional skill building of handwork and the healing power of making basket
 s and has received much recognition for her working knowledge of Black A
 sh basketry\, while being thought of as a patient and gentle educator.\n
 \n"Baapaagimaak (black ash) marked the beginning of my journey with trad
 itional craft as an Indigenous woman from northern Wisconsin..opening me
  up to the establishment of greater connections with other plant beings 
 that exist all around me and what historically was made with them."
