Heidi Bigknife is a Shawnee artist known for her intricate and unique jewelry designs, a talent she developed at the Institute of American Indian Art. Her creations are deeply rooted in storytelling and craftsmanship, "Conceptualizing and creating artwork connects me to many things in the past. It is a connection to ancestors; self-identity; beauty and simplicity; my voice; a voice to speak about these connections and to address society at large."

Heidi added that she is also inspired by language, history, texture, kinetics, beauty, and nature. She embellishes her pieces with freshwater pearls and other natural stones and beads such as turquoise, shell, and moonstone materials that speak to her of Earth and Water. "These ideas," she says "guide me in creating jewelry that I hope is entirely unique."
