Artist Statement:
"In this piece I’m given the opportunity for a literal and metaphorical meaning. The literal meaning being, the chief is adjusting his breast plate before anyone notices, a candid image of a chief, doing what we all do, before presenting ourselves. The metaphorical meaning, This particular Chief is adjusting, getting ready for what is about to come his way, he is preparing himself the best he can, and trying to adjust to the new way of life forcefully enforced. A battle that not even his breast plate will be able to protect him from, yet appearing brave and stoic, as any good leader should be. Notice the expression of concern."
