Often, the first seeds of cultural knowledge are planted in us by our mothers. This holds true for Shoshone-Bannock artist Kira Murillo, who shares: “Growing up in the powwow circle I was taught how to make and design my own dance regalia from my moms and aunties.” The perfect gift for a mother or matriarch, our Family Floral Throw Blanket is a beautiful testament to the continued growth of our families, communities, and knowledge
Kira designed our Family Floral Throw Blanket with a bold combination of traditional art elements and modern design sensibilities. The striking floral and geometric elements are often reflected in her Shoshone-Bannock tribal community’s artwork and regalia. The colors Kira chose—earthy yellows and tans—are traditional while feeling modern and the blanket’s two-sided design means it’s easily incorporated in any décor.
