About the Bear
The Clan Animals series explores animals that hold an important place in Anishinabek identity and teachings. Mukwa's role as protector and guardian reflects the strength and wisdom needed to uphold community well-being, while its connection to healing and the natural world emphasizes the importance of balance and knowledge. This ¾ oz silver proof brings those teachings to life through Mark Nadjiwan's distinctive Woodland-inspired artwork, enhanced with a contemporary palette of bold colors and soft earth tones.
