MADART SEATTLE MURAL

This design is based on traditional baskets of the Pacific Northwest people. Baskets are our first people’s writing system; they hold wisdom, tell stories, and record history. The warm yellow and red strands represent cedar: the queen tree of the Pacific Northwest. It is a rot-resistant and sturdy material for many beautifully woven items. From top to bottom the designs are a star, morning star, eagle, wooly dog, water waves, mountains, and fish gills, all prolific symbols of this region. It is important to note that these vary in representation and meaning among individuals, families, tribes, and regions, as cultures are not fixed but dynamic and subjective.
