Look up... and be entranced Patricia Michaels Parasols |
Patricia Michaels Taos Pueblo |
Louis Gong's (Nooksack) Eighth Generation Blankets Watch out Pendleton! |
Louis Gong is known for his shoe art with Northwest Native designs. |
Amazing weaving and owl mask by Margaret Roach Wheeler (Chicasaw). I'd love to see this one dance! |
Bethany Yellowtail (Crow/Northern Cheyenne) Amazing applique dress with elk tooth detail. Only drawing from one's culture would yield such a look. |
Street (or is it Rez) art was strongly represented by artists like Jered Yazzie (Navajo) His work can be found on the Beyond Buckskin website. |
Jered with his MIS-REP design |
Raven the Trickster and Eagle Skate Board Art Rico Worl (Athabaskan/Tlinget) |
I didn't know about N7. Did you? The N7 Fund is committed to creating early positive experiences in sport and physical activity for Native American and Aboriginal youth in North America. |
Last but not least. How could we not be amazed by Orlando Dugi's (Navajo) gown and porcupine quill headpiece. |
Native Fashion Now at the Portland Art Museum runs through September 4th, 2016. These photos represent my initial impressions of the show, but there is so much more!
