Ogligle Wakan Tuwa Kahaha (Little Angel Who Curls Up Like a Flame)

Author: J. R. Campbell (Iowa State University)

Abstract

In May of 1999 my eight-year-old Norwegian Elkhound died of kidney failure. "Ogligle Wakan Tuwa Kahaha" was his registered name, which in the Cherokee and Sioux Indian dialects means "Little angel who curls up like a flame." I have come to understand that I need to be able to include him in the visual vocabulary that I am developing in my work.
