This work explores five of thirteen episodic junctures of the Oneida Creation Myth. The work seeks to make manifest the spatial and narrative power ofthe Oneida cosmology. It is not a literal illustration of a story, but rather an interpretive translation that fuses the cultural conveyance in American Indian oral tradition with the graphic explanation ofthe construction document.
