Ka Mi Mi La Onchi means Grandmother Butterfly in the Lakota Language.
Jo Beth was 17 years old and had just graduated from high school she was at the beginning her life anew. Jo Beth was wearing a buckskin dress that I had made from three deer hides with my beaded Apache style necklace. She wore my dress into the Cheyenne River and I had her cup her hands and scoop the water and let it flow through her
fingers. The Black Swallow Tail butterfly represents change and transformation and this was what I saw in Jo Beth. Notice in the middle view that she is the body of the butterfly. My Lakota friends told me that when a woman is on a vision quest and is visited by butterflies, it is said she is visited by the Grandmothers.
