In Honour of Native Motherhood is a vibrant tribute to Indigenous maternal bonds, women and cultural continuity. The painting features a mother and child entwined beneath bold black outlines and filled with jewel-toned hues. Morrisseau painted this piece to have the viewer think of their relationship with their mother, due to the number of missing and murdered Indigenous women. Over the past few decades, over 4,000 Indigenous women have either gone missing or been murdered, making an Indigenous woman over 6 times more likely to go missing than a non-Indigenous, white woman.
For many, In Honour of Native Motherhood becomes a symbol of what has been lost and what must be protected. It helps foster empathy and awareness by visualizing a truth that the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women movement also seeks to assert: that Indigenous women matter, and their lives are worthy of honour, justice, and remembrance. This is in stark contrast to the historical, and ongoing, colonial violence, systemic racism, and neglect that Indigenous women face in Canada.
This piece is available in both 18x30 and 24x36, and one of a limited collection of twenty-five editions.
This collection has been prepared with the consent and involvement of the Official Norval Morrisseau Estate – making Acrylic the only certified reproducer of textured Norval Morrisseau’s works.
Profits from the sale of limited-edition reproductions will be split between Acrylic Robotics and the estate to fund further AI development and legacy restoration efforts.
