About the Artist
Artist Statement:
The mural design of the 12 feathers was inspired by the work of Wisconsin Ho-Chunk artist, Ken Lewis. He is a Bear Clan member, and his Ho-Chunk Name is Haap Maasja Maani, which means Walks with the Strength of the Day.
Artists Erin LaBonte, Don and Wes Krumpos, and David Carpenter of Yonder in Algoma, Wisconsin, brought this mural to life in July 2024 with the help of over 300 painters. Area residents and visitors, including members of the Ho-Chunk Tribe, joined together to paint this community mural during the 2nd annual ArtFest Green Bay.
