“Heads and Hearts: Seeing the Landscape Through Nez Perce Eyes” invites visitors to view history in the Pacific Northwest through a Nimiipuu, or Nez Perce, lense.
Meaning, they used historical insights from various tribes, particularly the Nez Perce, to understand the ancient history of geological events.
With permission, they spent time filming traditional stories from the Nez Perce for the exhibit and sharing their research with the tribe.
Nez Perce knowledge holders were taken on a trip up through Snake River and Hell’s Canyon while they shared their stories.
According to Morris Bishop, for many of them it was their first time in the heart of their homeland.
