supposed intrepidity, not even when Louisa falls. The flatness of Anne’s response to Wentworth’s hyperbolic compliments is uncomfortable but consistent with her characterization: she smiles coyly, lowers her head, and mutters gratitude like a bashful girl. The swim that follows is out of tune with previous and subsequent scenes but quite meaningfully in line with the theme of rebirth. As Wentworth leaves, the protagonist drops her shawl, wades into the rising tide, even though he warns her to beware of

Notched ladders are used by the Dogon people to access the upper levels of granaries, climb onto the flat roofs of houses, and bridge clefts in cliffs.
adapted masks and ceremonial dances to cater to tourists, and the natural evolution of their traditions to include new materials and characters has stagnated as a result of tourists desiring to see “traditional” Dogon life. The high prices that collectors and tourists are willing to pay for “traditional” Dogon art has also resulted in many of the oldest and finest pieces being sold away from Dogon country.

pursuit of survival that all living things share. What do we choose to “graft” to our backs and bring along for the long haul? In a time of environmental and economic deterioration it is for me a question of what is necessary, and perhaps more importantly, what is not. Slow moving and awkward on dry land, the sea turtle symbolizes patience, wisdom, tenacity, and perseverance. Water (implied) is really the key here, perhaps in its promise of sustenance and a hope that it exists. The materials chosen
